External mastic in Pitch Place, done properly
Failed sealant is cut out, the depth set with closed-cell backing rod, and the joint resealed with a low-modulus sealant made for outside. We pick a colour that sits well with the wall so the joint doesn’t stand out. If you’re dealing with plants rooting in failed movement joints and brick movement joints where the sealant has split, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Pitch Place, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

Your questions about external mastic in Pitch Place
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Witley station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Will you come out to Pitch Place?
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.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will tell you what we are using.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why do you put foam in the joint first?
We fit closed-cell backing rod wherever the joint depth needs controlling. It sets the sealant depth and prevents three-sided bonding.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Wash walls gently around the sealant
- Deal with leaking gutters that soak the joints below
- Look over the joints every year, ideally after winter
- Do not let climbing plants root in the sealant
Make sure anyone working on the wall later knows where the movement joints are. They should be kept open and resealed, not filled.
Act while the splits are small. Then it’s a straightforward cut-out and reseal with no damage behind it to deal with.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Nearby places to Pitch Place
Also in Pitch Place
Surface by surface
Render joints
Render is weaker at the surface than brick, so a sealant that stretches easily protects the edges. Priming is done where the sealant calls for it.
Brickwork movement joints
Vertical joints in long brick walls let the brickwork expand without cracking. They’re resealed over backing rod with a low-modulus sealant in a colour to suit the brick.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Structural movement, which needs a surveyor or engineer
- Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint
- Damp from another source, such as a leaking gutter or a bridged damp-proof course
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Brickwork movement joints
- Copings & trims
- Façade panels
- Joints between brick and frames
- Concrete & block

What external mastic looks like in Pitch Place
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Homes close to Church of St Michael and All Angels include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

The process

In a small place like Pitch Place, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking each joint, agreeing the ones to redo and how we’ll reach them.
- Old sealant and any debris are cut and raked out.
- The joint faces are cleaned and primed where the sealant needs it.
- Closed-cell backing rod is fitted to set the depth and stop three-sided bonding.
- We gun in a flexible exterior sealant in a colour that suits the wall and tool it neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any water getting in

Related advice
Common problems we fix in Pitch Place
Some movement joints have been pointed up with mortar. The joint cannot move, so the wall cracks somewhere else instead.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Gaps where render, brick and frames meet
- Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
- Leaking joints around cladding and façade panels
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
If you let a flat or house near Witley station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.
