When to call us in Isleworth
Joints sealed without backing rod, or far too deep, rarely last. If the sealant sticks to the back as well as the sides, it cannot stretch and rips as the joint opens.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Plants rooting in failed movement joints
- Movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant
- Failed seals between different materials
- Panel joints letting water in
Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

External mastic for homes and businesses in Isleworth
Movement joints let brickwork, render and cladding expand and shrink without cracking. Its sealant has to flex with the building, season after season, so once it splits or hardens, the joint stops working and water gets in. If you have hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving and movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant, we can help.
London’s terraces and conversions often share walls, gutters and downpipes with their neighbours, so a leaking gutter joint or failed wall joint can affect more than one home. For a flat in Isleworth, check the lease for who looks after the outside.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Isleworth. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- We inspect the joints and agree which need resealing and how they’ll be reached.
- The old mastic and anything lodged in the joint is removed.
- We clean both faces of the joint and prime them where the product calls for it.
- Backing rod goes in next, setting the depth and keeping the sealant off the back of the joint.
- We gun in a flexible exterior sealant in a colour that suits the wall and tool it neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky

External mastic in Isleworth: local notes
Historic houses like Syon House (about 0.9 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Isleworth has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. London terraces and converted houses often share gutters, downpipes and walls, so it’s worth agreeing who is responsible before work starts.
As a London address, Isleworth can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. If you look after a building such as St Mary's Catholic Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Why act early in Isleworth
Resealing a run of joints in one go is usually better than patching one at a time. They’ve weathered the same way and it means sorting access once. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Isleworth questions
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Isleworth?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Isleworth station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Why is there a gap in my brick wall?
Walls move with heat, cold and moisture, and planned joints take up that movement. It’s closed with backing rod and a flexible sealant.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Isleworth and the rest of Greater London.
When is the sealant fully cured?
It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
How long does external mastic last?
It depends on the exposure, the movement and the product. Treat it as a maintenance item and look at it yearly and renew it when it starts to fail.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Surface by surface
Render joints
Render has movement joints and stop beads that need sealing. They’re resealed in a sealant that suits the render.
Copings and trims
Metal and stone copings both move with temperature, so the joints need a sealant that stays flexible in all weathers.
