External mastic near Halton

About our external mastic in Halton

We cut out failed sealant, set the joint depth with closed-cell backing rod and reseal with a low-modulus exterior sealant. The colour is chosen to suit the brick or render so the joint doesn’t stand out. Typical jobs include water getting into walls through failed joints and joints where the bead has come unstuck, on concrete & block, copings & trims and brickwork movement joints.

Somewhere as small as Halton, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Halton and everywhere else we cover.

Why deal with it now?

Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it locks the joint solid. The wall then cracks somewhere else. A flexible sealant over backing rod is what the joint needs. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Halton, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will talk you through it.

When it is not the sealant

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Damp from another source, such as a leaking gutter or a bridged damp-proof course
  • Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
  • Walls that need new movement joints cut into them

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we seal

  • Concrete & block
  • Render & cladding joints
  • Joints between brick and frames

  • Copings & trims

Quotes for external mastic in Halton

We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Whether the work is at height

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What we need to know

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

We don’t publish a price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Do you need external mastic in Halton?

Weeds, moss and debris in a joint are a sign the sealant has gone. Roots and dirt hold water against the wall and speed up the damage.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Brick movement joints where the sealant has split
  • Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
  • Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
  • Plants rooting in failed movement joints

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Michael and All Angels, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

What your quote should include

  • Whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • What insurance they hold

Is Halton within the area you cover?

Yes, Halton is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Is it messy?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Where do you work from?

Should I try DIY first?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

How it works

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. In a small place like Halton, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by checking each joint, agreeing the ones to redo and how we will reach them.
  2. The old mastic and anything lodged in the joint is removed.
  3. Both sides are cleaned back to sound material and primed if needed.
  4. We push in closed-cell backing rod so the sealant is the right depth and bonds to the sides only.
  5. The new sealant, chosen to suit the brick or render, is applied and tooled to a neat finish.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Keeping the joints in good condition

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Fix overflowing gutters above sealed joints
  • Show decorators and builders where the movement joints are
  • Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
  • Keep soil, plants and ivy away from the joints

Make sure anyone working on the wall later knows where the movement joints are. They should be kept open and resealed, not filled.

Leave a failed movement joint and water keeps getting into the wall. That can lead to damp patches, staining and frost damage which cost more to put right than the joint.

Walls and rooflines in Halton

The South East is one of 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 Cholesbury Manor House (about 3.9 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Halton 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.

If you let a flat or house near Wendover station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. If you look after a building such as Halton Community Combined School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
