What we’re called out for in Hursley
Sunlight, wet weather and frost wear exterior sealant down. In time it goes hard, crazes on the surface and stops stretching, so the joint eventually tears or comes away from one side.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Damp patches traced to an open external joint
- Sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render
- Failed seals between different materials
- Failed sealant between panels on a façade
Rented homes near Shawford station change hands often, and split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.

External mastic for homes and businesses in Hursley
Where two different materials meet, such as brick and render or blockwork and metal, they move at different rates. A flexible sealant bridges the two. We work on concrete & block, brickwork movement joints and copings & trims, and people most often call us about weeds or debris growing in open joints and rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint.
Around Hursley, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. Where one material meets another is where water usually gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. For a village or hamlet like Hursley, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, the joints are inspected and the access agreed.
- We cut out the old mastic and rake out anything in the joint.
- Joint faces are cleaned back and primed if the sealant needs it.
- We fit closed-cell backing rod to control the depth.
- The exterior sealant is applied, tooled and checked along its length.
Getting ready for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

- Subsidence or other structural problems
- Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint

Why deal with it now?
Water gets in through a failed movement joint and can run behind render or cladding. Resealing early keeps the job to the joint itself, rather than the wall around it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hursley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.

Outside joints around Hursley
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you look after a building such as John Keble Church of England Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Why is there a gap in my brick wall?
A vertical gap in a long brick wall is normally a movement joint. It gives the wall room to move, and it should be sealed with a flexible sealant.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
What does external mastic cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check external joints each spring
- Have failed joints looked at early
- Keep soil, plants and ivy away from the joints
- Deal with leaking gutters that soak the joints below
Keep pressure washers away from the sealant. A strong jet can damage the edges of the bead.
Act while the splits are small. Then it’s a straightforward cut-out and reseal before water has had years to get in.
