External & façade joints in North Weston, Oxfordshire
Movement joints in North Weston need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

- Damp patches traced to an open external joint
- Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left
External mastic in North Weston
Low-level joints can normally be done from the ground. For joints higher up, give us some details of the building and we’ll confirm what’s needed to reach them safely. If you have damp patches traced to an open external joint and old sealant gone brittle and cracked, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in North Weston is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What we are called out for in North Weston
Sometimes a movement joint was filled with mortar or a rigid filler, often by someone who didn’t know what it was for. With the joint locked solid, the movement turns into cracks elsewhere in the wall.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Damp patches traced to an open external joint
- Rigid filler in a joint that should flex
- Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left
- Joints where the bead has come unstuck
If you look after a building such as Lord Williams's School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.
What your quote should include
- What the cure time is
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Are they insured?

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as North Weston, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we look over the joints with you, agree which to renew and talk through access.
- The old mastic and anything lodged in the joint is removed.
- Both sides are cleaned back to sound material and primed if needed.
- We push in closed-cell backing rod so the sealant is the right depth and bonds to the sides only.
- We gun in a flexible exterior sealant in a colour that suits the wall and tool it neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Structural movement, which needs a surveyor or engineer
- Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint
- Loose or hollow render, which needs re-rendering
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Concrete & block
- Render & cladding joints
- Copings & trims
- Brickwork movement joints
- Joints between brick and frames
- Façade panels
Surface by surface
Cladding and façade panels
Panels heat up and cool down quickly, so the joint sealant has to cope with frequent movement. We choose the product to suit.
Render joints
Render is weaker at the surface than brick, so a low-modulus sealant is kinder to the joint edges. We prime where the product needs it.
Why it’s worth doing now in North Weston
An open joint keeps letting water into the wall with every downpour. In cold weather, frost can damage wet brick and render around the joint, so the damage spreads beyond the joint. In a small place like North Weston, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Why us?
- We never seal over old sealant
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Full insurance on every job
- We leave the area clean and tidy

Outside joints around North Weston
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Adwell House (about 3.9 miles south) are a reminder that the area around North Weston has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
If you live in an older home near Parish Church of St Mary Magdalene, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Rented homes near Haddenham & Thame Parkway station change hands often, and outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

North Weston questions
Will you come out to North Weston?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Haddenham & Thame Parkway station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Can you match the colour of my brickwork?
There’s a good range of exterior colours, including greys, browns, whites and stone tones. We choose the closest to your brick or render so the joint does not draw the eye.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do the sealants smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
What does external mastic cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used.
