About our external mastic in Fawley
We cut out failed sealant, set the joint depth with closed-cell backing rod and reseal with a low-modulus exterior sealant. We pick a colour that sits well with the wall so the joint does not stand out. We work on concrete & block, render & cladding joints and joints between brick and frames, and people most often call us about sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render and failed sealant between panels on a façade.
Around Fawley, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. Where one material meets another is where water usually gets in.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Fawley and everywhere else we cover.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Leave the joints unpainted unless we have said otherwise
- Wash walls gently around the sealant
- Keep soil, plants and ivy away from the joints
- Check external joints each spring
Give the sealant the cure time we tell you before anything rubs against it. Most exterior sealants skin fast but take longer to cure right through.
Gaps, plants or missing sealant in a joint are worth getting looked at. Early work is quicker and leaves a better finish.

When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Damp that is not coming from the joint
- Cracked brickwork or render that needs a builder or plasterer
- Render that’s blown, hollow or coming away
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Walls and rooflines in Fawley
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Greenlands (about 1.2 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Fawley as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
In the older streets around St Mary the Virgin's Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

When to call us in Fawley
The wrong product in a moving joint is a classic cause. A stiff, general-purpose sealant can’t cope with a joint that moves a lot, and it tears off the sides.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Weeds or debris growing in open joints
- Leaking joints around cladding and façade panels
- Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
If you let a flat or house near Henley-On-Thames station, split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Who turns up on the day
- What insurance they hold
- The length of the guarantee
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Fawley, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
- Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
- Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
- We prime the faces where required.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
