External mastic in Hampden Park

What the job involves on each surface

Concrete and blockwork

Concrete faces can be dusty and porous, so preparation is key. We prime where the sealant needs it before the bead.

Cladding and façade panels

Panels heat up and cool down quickly, so the joint sealant has to cope with frequent movement. We choose the product to suit.

How we handle external mastic in Hampden Park

For buildings in Hampden Park, we reseal external joints of all kinds, from brick movement joints to cladding panels. The preparation is the same whatever the wall: clean joint faces and the right depth. We work on concrete & block, façade panels and copings & trims, and common reasons people get in touch are failed sealant between panels on a façade and movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant.

In and around Hampden Park, older properties sit alongside newer ones, each with its own outside joints. Older gutters and trims need their joints resealed; newer brick and render need their movement joints kept sound.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Looking after it afterwards

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Show decorators and builders where the movement joints are
  • Keep movement joints as flexible joints, not mortar
  • Look over the joints every year, ideally after winter
  • Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it

Keep the joints clear of soil, plants and climbing growth. Anything that holds water against the joint wears it out sooner.

An open movement joint lets rain into the wall every time it pours. Over time it can mean damp inside, stained render or frost-damaged brick, all bigger jobs than a reseal.

How it works

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. A visit to Hampden Park is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
  2. We take out the old sealant until the faces are sound.
  3. Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
  4. We prime the faces where required.
  5. A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Outside joints around Hampden Park

Hampden Park is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on movement joints and outside wall joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

If you live in an older home near St Mary's Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. For landlords with property near Hampden Park station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

FAQs for Hampden Park

Is Hampden Park within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Does the coastal weather in Hampden Park affect outside sealant?

Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We’re fully insured.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for householders, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels in Hampden Park.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

How do I get a quote for external mastic in Hampden Park?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.

Signs you need external mastic in Hampden Park

Sometimes a movement joint was filled with mortar or a rigid filler, often by someone who didn’t know what it was for. The joint cannot move, so the wall cracks somewhere else instead.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Plants rooting in failed movement joints
  • Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
  • Joints pointed up with cement by mistake
  • Hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving

If you look after a building such as Heron Park Primary Academy, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
