Quotes for external mastic in Mindenhurst

- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether there’s mould to deal with

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed

How we handle external mastic in Mindenhurst
As ARBOMaster approved applicators, we choose exterior sealants to suit the joint and the surfaces. Porous or awkward surfaces are primed where the sealant needs it and we use one wherever it does. Common call-outs are for water getting into walls through failed joints and old sealant gone brittle and cracked, across copings & trims, brickwork movement joints and concrete & block.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Mindenhurst is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

Common questions in Mindenhurst
Is Mindenhurst within the area you cover?
Yes. Mindenhurst is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. 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 cover Mindenhurst for external mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Mindenhurst is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
When will the joints need doing again?
It varies with how exposed the wall is and how much the joint moves. Look for splits, hardening or edges coming away and have them redone then.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Why is there a gap in my brick wall?
A movement joint is a planned break in the wall that absorbs expansion and shrinkage. It should be filled with flexible sealant, never mortar.
Do you use backing rod?
Closed-cell backing rod sets the depth of the sealant and stops it sticking to the back of the joint. Then the sealant bonds to two faces and can move.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building from start to finish. For a village or hamlet like Mindenhurst, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by walking round the building and agreeing the joints and the access.
- We cut out the old mastic and rake out anything in the joint.
- The faces are brushed clean and primed where the product requires it.
- Backing rod sized to the joint goes in to set the depth.
- We apply the sealant, tool it and check the whole run.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Surface by surface
Render joints
Water behind render can lead to blown patches. Resealing the joints early keeps water out and helps it last.
Concrete and blockwork
Blockwork and concrete shrink over time and move with the seasons. We reseal their joints with backing rod and a flexible product.
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing a run of joints in one go is usually better than patching one at a time. Joints of the same age tend to fail together, and access only has to be arranged once. Older cottages and farmhouses around Mindenhurst can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
What you get with us
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows

- Colour agreed with you before any work starts
