External mastic for homes and businesses in Langton Green

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. We work on brickwork movement joints, façade panels and joints between brick and frames, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant pulling away from one side of the joint and joints pointed up with cement by mistake.

Around Langton Green, garages, outbuildings and extensions all add to the joints on the outside of a home. Gutter ends, garage door frames and the joints where an extension meets the house are typical spots for leaks.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Langton Green

Is Langton Green within the area you cover?

Yes, Langton Green is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

I let a flat near Tunbridge Wells station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Will the new joint stand out?

We aim for a joint that suits the wall rather than one that jumps out. We will talk through colour options before work begins from the range available.

Will you leave a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.

Can you seal joints between render and window frames?

Yes. The old joint is removed, both surfaces cleaned and primed where needed, and a flexible sealant applied. The colour is chosen to suit.

What is a movement joint?

It’s a deliberate gap that lets the wall expand and contract without cracking. It should be filled with flexible sealant, never mortar.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.

Why do you put foam in the joint first?

We fit closed-cell backing rod wherever the joint depth needs controlling. It sets the sealant depth and prevents three-sided bonding, so the joint can move.

Can I do it myself?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

What affects the cost of external mastic

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • The size of the job
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

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

Asking for a quote

To help us quote quickly, let us know:

  • The type of property
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

We don’t publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Langton Green

Using the wrong sealant is another common reason. A high-modulus or general-purpose sealant can be too rigid for a busy joint, so it pulls away from the edges.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
  • Damp patches traced to an open external joint
  • Weeds or debris growing in open joints
  • Failed seals between different materials

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Before booking anyone

  • How much experience the applicator has
  • What product goes in the joint
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • Are they insured?

Our hiring checklist

Why it’s worth doing now in Langton Green

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 Langton Green, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Why Langton Green clients choose us

  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
  • Full insurance on every job
  • Old sealant always removed completely
  • Over 20 years’ experience

What external mastic looks like in Langton Green

Historic houses like Groombridge Place (about 1.5 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Langton Green has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

Rented homes near Tunbridge Wells station change hands often, and outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. Managing a site like Langton Green Primary School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
