External & façade joints in Fetcham, Surrey
We cover Fetcham for sealing brickwork movement joints, render, cladding and façade joints. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Failed sealant between panels on a façade

External mastic in Fetcham, done properly
For buildings in Fetcham, we reseal external joints of all kinds, from brick movement joints to cladding panels. Every joint gets the same careful preparation: clean joint faces and the right depth. We work on façade panels, concrete & block and render & cladding joints, and people most often call us about joints pointed up with cement by mistake and brick movement joints where the sealant has split.
Outbuildings, garages and conservatories around homes in places like Fetcham add more joints to look after. Gutter ends, garage door frames and the joints where an extension meets the house are typical spots for leaks.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What we are called out for in Fetcham
Many joints fail because they were sealed too deep or with nothing behind them. If the sealant sticks to the back as well as the sides, it can’t stretch and rips as the joint opens.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
- Damp patches traced to an open external joint
- Joints pointed up with cement by mistake
- Gaps where render, brick and frames meet
Letting a property close to Leatherhead station? Then outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

Outside joints around Fetcham
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Polesden Lacey (about 2.4 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Fetcham has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
In the older streets around Church of St. Mary, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Oakfield Junior School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Common questions in Fetcham
Do you cover Fetcham for external mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Fetcham is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Fetcham?
Yes. Fetcham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
What is a movement joint?
Walls move with heat, cold and moisture, so long walls have planned gaps to take that movement. The gap is sealed with a flexible sealant over backing rod.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Can you seal joints between two different materials?
Yes. Different materials move at different rates, so the joint between them must be flexible. We choose one that suits both surfaces.
How long does external mastic take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but most jobs take a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. We will tell you when we quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

How the job changes by surface
Concrete and blockwork
Concrete faces can be dusty and porous, so cleaning and priming matter. We prime where the sealant needs it before the bead.
Cladding and façade panels
Panels heat up and cool down quickly, so the joints work hard every day. The sealant is chosen with that in mind.
How we quote for external mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Whether the work is at height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The product the joint needs
- The size of the job
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The rough size of the job
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Tell anyone working on the walls about the movement joints
- Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it
- Don’t let climbing plants root in the sealant
- Never let anyone fill a movement joint with mortar
Avoid pressure-washing straight into the joints. A strong jet can damage the edges of the bead.
A joint that has stopped moving pushes the movement elsewhere, normally as cracking in the brickwork or render nearby. Catch it early and you reduce the risk.
How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building, depending on how much there is to do. For a job in Fetcham, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by walking round the building and agreeing the joints and the access.
- We cut out the old mastic and rake out anything in the joint.
- The faces are brushed clean and primed where the product requires it.
- Backing rod sized to the joint goes in to set the depth.
- We apply the sealant, tool it and check the whole run.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
