What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. In a small place like Nether Worton, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Each joint is checked and the colour of the new sealant agreed.
- Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
- Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
- We prime the faces where required.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

External mastic in Nether Worton, done properly
A movement joint is only as good as its depth. Backing rod controls how deep the sealant goes and keeps it off the back of the joint, so it bonds to the two sides only and can stretch. We work on render & cladding joints, brickwork movement joints and copings & trims, and the jobs we see most are sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render and joints with sealant missing in places.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Nether Worton is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

What else we do in Nether Worton
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix overflowing gutters above sealed joints
- Leave the joints unpainted unless we have said otherwise
- Show decorators and builders where the movement joints are
- Act on the first splits you see
Follow the cure time we give you before the joint is knocked or disturbed. Most exterior sealants skin fast but take longer to cure right through.
If you can see gaps, plants or bare sections in a joint, have it checked. Early work is quicker and leaves a better finish.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Nether Worton
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.
What external mastic looks like in Nether Worton
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In the older streets around Church of the Holy Trinity, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

What affects the cost of external mastic

- How much there is to do
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
- How many areas need sealing
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before work begins.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the property is

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Subsidence or other structural problems
- Render that’s blown, hollow or coming away
- Cutting new joints into brickwork, which is building work rather than sealant work
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Render & cladding joints
- Copings & trims
- Joints between brick and frames
- Façade panels
- Concrete & block
- Brickwork movement joints
Common problems we fix in Nether Worton
Poor preparation causes many early failures: joint faces that were dusty or damp, unprimed where they needed it, or still carrying old sealant. The sealant never bonds properly.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Water getting into walls through failed joints
- Movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant
- Cracked joints where brick meets render or frames
- Joints where the bead has come unstuck
Rented homes near Heyford station change hands often, and failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What happens if the job turns out different
How the job changes by surface
Render joints
Cracks along render joints let water in behind the coat. Resealing the joints early keeps water out.
Concrete and blockwork
The face of concrete or block is often dusty, so cleaning and priming matter. A primer goes on where the product requires one.
