About our external mastic in Nutfield
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. We work on brickwork movement joints, joints between brick and frames and façade panels, and people most often call us about failed sealant between panels on a façade and moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left.
Somewhere as small as Nutfield, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How the visit works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like Nutfield, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
- Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
- Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
- We prime the faces where required.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Signs you need external mastic in Nutfield
Some movement joints have been pointed up with mortar by mistake. With the joint locked solid, the movement turns into cracks elsewhere in the wall.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant
- Weeds or debris growing in open joints
- Joints with sealant missing in places
- Hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving
Rented homes near Nutfield station change hands often, and failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies.
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee
- How much experience the applicator has
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How the colour is chosen
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Point out the joints to other trades
- Never let anyone fill a movement joint with mortar
- Get split or bare joints resealed while the damage is small
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
Keep the joints clear of soil, plants and climbing growth. Damp material against the sealant shortens its life.
Water getting behind cladding or render can go unnoticed for a long time. When it finally shows inside, the joint may have been open for years, so it’s worth resealing at the first signs.
How the job changes by surface
Render joints
Water behind render can lead to blown patches. A sound joint keeps the render dry behind.
Copings and trims
Metal and stone copings both move with temperature, so a flexible sealant suits them best in all weathers.
Outside joints around Nutfield
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In the older streets around Church of St Peter and St Paul, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Nutfield Church CofE Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Nutfield questions
I let a flat near Nutfield station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Nutfield within the area you cover?
Yes. Nutfield 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 remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
