- Hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving

How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. Somewhere like Hill Head needs a little journey planning: 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.
- Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
- Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

About our external mastic in Hill Head
For buildings in Hill Head, 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. If you are dealing with moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left and failed seals between different materials, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Hill Head, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Joints on those walls need a sealant that moves with the building and stays in place.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What we are called out for in Hill Head
Every building moves. Brickwork grows a little over the years, blockwork and concrete shrink, and all of it moves with heat and moisture. All of that ends up in the joint sealant.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Old sealant gone brittle and cracked
- Brick movement joints where the sealant has split
- Gaps where render, brick and frames meet
- Water getting into walls through failed joints
Homes close to Holy Rood Church include some older properties, and an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

What external mastic looks like in Hill Head
Hill Head is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on movement joints and outside wall joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. 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.
Rented homes near Fareham station change hands often, and split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside. If you look after a building such as Crofton Hammond Infant School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Leave it or put it right?
A low-modulus sealant is chosen because it moves without pulling hard at the edges. That protects surfaces like brick, render and concrete. Too stiff a sealant can pull at the edges and break them. Around Hill Head, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Hill Head questions
Does the coastal weather in Hill Head affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are usually the first to need attention.
Do you work for landlords with property near Fareham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Can a movement joint be filled with mortar?
No. Cement or mortar can’t stretch. Where a joint has been mortared, it can often be raked out and sealed properly.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get split or bare joints resealed while the damage is small
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
- Leave the joints unpainted unless we’ve said otherwise
- Clear growth from the base of walls and joints
Keep the joints clear of soil, plants and climbing growth. Anything that holds water against the joint wears it out sooner.
Leaks behind façade panels and render often go unseen. When it finally shows inside, the joint may have been open for years.
