External mastic near Micklefield

External mastic for homes and businesses in Micklefield

Joints between dissimilar materials, like brick against render or concrete against a steel frame, see movement from both sides. A flexible exterior sealant takes up that movement where a rigid filler would soon crack. We’re often asked to deal with sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render and brick movement joints where the sealant has split, on joints between brick and frames, façade panels and concrete & block.

Around Micklefield, 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.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What we do, step by step

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building, and the area is left clean. Parking around Micklefield is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
  2. Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
  3. Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
  4. We prime the faces where required.
  5. A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

When it isn’t the sealant

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Render that’s blown, hollow or coming away
  • Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint
  • Subsidence or other structural problems

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Render & cladding joints
  • Brickwork movement joints
  • Concrete & block
  • Façade panels
  • Copings & trims
  • Joints between brick and frames

Why deal with it now?

It often makes sense to reseal all the failing joints on an elevation together. They’ve weathered the same way. Around Micklefield, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Why book with us

  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • 20+ years of sealant experience

Walls and rooflines in Micklefield

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. With historic houses such as Hughenden Manor (about 2.3 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Micklefield as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.

Managing a site like Kings Wood School and Nursery? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. Rented homes near High Wycombe station change hands often, and split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.

What we are called out for in Micklefield

Weeds, moss and debris in a joint are a sign the sealant has gone. Dirt and roots then trap moisture in the joint and make things worse.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Joints where the bead has come unstuck
  • Failed sealant between panels on a façade
  • Joints with sealant missing in places
  • Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint

For an older house near a landmark such as St Andrew's Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Before booking anyone

  • What the cure time is
  • The length of the guarantee
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?

FAQs for Micklefield

Do you cover smaller places like Micklefield?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you work for landlords with property near High Wycombe station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.

Is it messy?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

How do you reach high-level joints?

Each building is different. Send us photos and a rough idea of the height and we’ll confirm how they can be reached safely.

Can I do it myself?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Do I need to be at home?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

How we quote for external mastic

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The number of rooms or windows

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

What to tell us for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Where the property is
  • How we’d reach the joints

Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
