Why it’s worth doing now in Fenwick
A properly done movement joint is an even line in a colour that suits the wall. A rushed bead with no backing looks untidy and does not last. In an older home around Fenwick, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

How we handle external mastic in Fenwick
We are ARBOMaster approved applicators, and each external joint gets a sealant suited to it. Porous or awkward surfaces are primed where the sealant needs it and we use one wherever it does. Typical jobs include cracked joints where brick meets render or frames and hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving, on façade panels, render & cladding joints and copings & trims.
Across smaller places in Scotland, stone and harled cottages, farm buildings and newer houses often stand exposed to wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Never let anyone fill a movement joint with mortar
- Ask before painting over external sealant
- Avoid pressure-washing directly into sealant joints
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
Keep pressure washers away from the sealant. High-pressure water can lift the edges.
Small splits are the time to act. At that stage it’s a simple cut out and reseal with no damage behind it to deal with.
Questions from Fenwick
Do you work for landlords with property near Stewarton station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you cover Fenwick for external mastic?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Fenwick is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
What is backing rod for?
Backing rod controls the sealant depth and keeps it off the back of the joint. Then the sealant bonds to two faces and can move.
Where are you based?
We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
How long does external mastic take?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Is it OK to fill a movement joint with cement?
No, not where the gap is a movement joint. Pointing it stops it working. A flexible sealant is the right fill.
Can you match the colour of my brickwork?
There’s a good range of exterior colours, including greys, browns, whites and stone tones. We choose the closest to your brick or render so the joint doesn’t draw the eye.
What external mastic looks like in Fenwick
The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for movement joints and outside wall joints to keep out. Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface.
For an older house near a landmark such as Fenwick Parish Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. For landlords with property near Stewarton station, split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.

What the job involves on each surface
Render joints
Render has movement joints and stop beads that need sealing. We reseal them with a flexible exterior sealant that suits the render colour.
Cladding and façade panels
Metal and composite panels move a lot with temperature, so the joints work hard every day. We choose the product to suit.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Outdoor work around Fenwick depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
- We take out the old sealant until the faces are sound.
- Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
- Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.

Quotes for external mastic in Fenwick
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of sealant required
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number of rooms or windows
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The address or postcode of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
If you’re in Fenwick and need external mastic, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Movement that is more than a sealant joint can take
- Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
- Cutting new joints into brickwork, which is building work rather than sealant work
