External & façade joints in Lymington, Hampshire
Our applicators work in Lymington on sealing brickwork movement joints, render, cladding and façade joints. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Failed sealant between panels on a façade
- Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
- Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left
How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. In Lymington, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.
- We inspect the joints and agree which need resealing and how they’ll be reached.
- We cut out the failed sealant and rake out any dirt or growth.
- The joint faces are cleaned and primed where the sealant needs it.
- Closed-cell backing rod is fitted to set the depth and stop three-sided bonding.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied and tooled in a colour to suit the wall.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

External mastic in Lymington, done properly
Ground-floor and low-level joints are straightforward to reach. Where joints are higher up, tell us about the building when you get in touch and we will confirm what’s needed to reach them safely. We work on brickwork movement joints, render & cladding joints and joints between brick and frames, and people most often call us about weathered mastic that no longer stretches and joints where the bead has come unstuck.
In a town like Lymington, older houses with traditional gutters sit alongside newer estates with uPVC rooflines and rendered walls. Gutter joints, fascia trims and the movement joints in newer brickwork all need sealant that can flex.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Lymington buildings and the weather
Lymington is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on movement joints and outside wall joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. 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.
Letting a property close to Lymington Town station? Then failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies. Managing a site like Lymington Junior School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you live in an older home near Church of St. Thomas the Apostle, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Fix overflowing gutters above sealed joints
- Wash walls gently around the sealant
- Act on the first splits you see
- Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it
Keep the joints clear of soil, plants and climbing growth. Anything that holds water against the joint wears it out sooner.
Gaps, plants or missing sealant in a joint are worth getting looked at. Earlier resealing means a smaller job and a better result.
Different surfaces, different methods
Brickwork movement joints
Brick movement joints are often mistaken for a missing mortar line. If that’s happened, we rake it out and reseal it properly if the joint can be cleared.
Cladding and façade panels
Panel systems often rely on sealant between and around the panels. We reseal them with a sealant suited to the panel material.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Why act early in Lymington
A failed movement joint lets water into the wall, behind render and cladding. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint, rather than the wall around it. Black mould and gaps in sealant do not fix themselves, and in a busy household in Lymington they spread with every shower and every downpour. Now is the easy time to put it right.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

Your questions about external mastic in Lymington
Is Lymington in your area for external mastic?
Yes, Lymington is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Does the coastal weather in Lymington affect outside sealant?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
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.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Do you seal joints where cladding meets other materials?
Yes. Materials like render, brick, metal and uPVC all move differently, so the joint between them must be flexible. We choose one that suits both surfaces.
Can you reach joints on upper floors?
That depends on the building and the joints. We work on joints that can be reached safely. Give us some details and we’ll confirm the access.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we are fully insured.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
