External & façade joints in Liss Forest, Hampshire
Problem with your movement joints in Liss Forest? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
- Joints where the bead has come unstuck
- Failed seals between different materials
Why deal with it now?
Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it stops the joint moving. The movement then cracks the brickwork or render nearby. A flexible sealant over backing rod is what the joint needs. Older cottages and farmhouses around Liss Forest can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

- Colour agreed with you before work begins
- One-year guarantee on every job

External mastic for homes and businesses in Liss Forest
For buildings in Liss Forest, we reseal external joints of all kinds, from brick movement joints to cladding panels. Every joint gets the same careful preparation: clean, sound faces and a controlled depth. We work on brickwork movement joints, render & cladding joints and concrete & block, and people most often call us about weathered mastic that no longer stretches and gaps where render, brick and frames meet.
Around Liss Forest, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. Where one material meets another is where water normally gets in.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Copings and trims
Coping joints that leak let water straight down into the wall. Sealing them early saves the wall below.
Joints between dissimilar materials
Joints where frames, sills or panels meet the wall are common leak points. The old joint is removed and a sealant that bonds to both sides goes in.
When it isn’t the sealant
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint
- Render that is blown, hollow or coming away
- Walls that need new movement joints cut into them
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What external mastic looks like in Liss Forest
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you look after a building such as Liss Infant School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. For an older house near a landmark such as St Saviour's, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. If you let a flat or house near Liss station, split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.
