Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work.
External mastic in Littleton, done properly
Movement joints let brickwork, render and cladding expand and shrink without cracking. The sealant in it has to stretch and squeeze for years, and when it fails, the wall takes the strain and water finds a way in. If you have sealant pulling away from one side of the joint and moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left, we can help, on joints between brick and frames, concrete & block and brickwork movement joints alike.
Around Littleton, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What else we do in Littleton
How the job changes by surface
Render joints
Cracks along render joints let water in behind the coat. A sound joint keeps the render dry behind and helps it last.
Joints between dissimilar materials
Where a frame or panel meets masonry, water often finds a way in. The old joint is removed and a sealant that bonds to both sides goes in.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Cutting new joints into brickwork, which is building work rather than sealant work
- Damp that is not coming from the joint
- Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Concrete & block

- Render & cladding joints
- Façade panels
Why act early in Littleton
Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it stops the joint moving. The wall then cracks somewhere else. The correct repair is a flexible sealant with the right backing. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Littleton, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Walls and rooflines in Littleton
Historic houses like Botleys Mansion (about 3.7 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Littleton 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary Magdalene, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Littleton CofE Infant School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Your questions about external mastic in Littleton
Is Littleton in your area for external mastic?
Yes, Littleton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
I let a flat near Shepperton station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
When will the joints need doing again?
It varies from wall to wall: joints on exposed walls or with a lot of movement age sooner. Check them each year and reseal when they split or harden. Our work comes with a one-year guarantee.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Is it OK to fill a movement joint with cement?
No, not where the gap is a movement joint. Pointing it stops it working and can lead to cracking. A flexible sealant is the right fill.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Will the new joint stand out?
We aim for a joint that suits the wall rather than one that jumps out. Colour is agreed with you before we begin from the range available.
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep high-pressure jets off the joints
- Don’t let climbing plants root in the sealant
- Have failed joints looked at early
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
Avoid pressure-washing straight into the joints. High-pressure water can lift the edges and let water in behind.
Once a joint cannot move, the wall finds another way, generally as cracking in the brickwork or render nearby. Catch it early and you reduce the risk.
What we’re called out for in Littleton
If plants are growing out of a joint, the sealant has generally failed or was never there. Dirt and roots then trap moisture in the joint and speed up the damage.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
- Leaking joints around cladding and façade panels
- Gaps where render, brick and frames meet
- Joints pointed up with cement by mistake
Letting a property close to Shepperton station? Then split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.
