For buildings in Princes Risborough, we reseal external joints of all kinds, from brick movement joints to cladding panels. Every joint gets the same careful preparation: clean joint faces and the right depth. Typical jobs include sealant pulling away from one side of the joint and movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant, on brickwork movement joints, joints between brick and frames and copings & trims.
Outbuildings, garages and conservatories around homes in places like Princes Risborough add more joints to look after. Leaks generally start at a gutter end, a garage door frame or where an extension meets the house.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What happens if it’s left?
Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it stops the joint moving. The movement then cracks the brickwork or render nearby. A flexible sealant over backing rod is what the joint needs. Around Princes Risborough, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Surface by surface
Render joints
Rendered walls have joints at beads, openings and changes of material. They’re resealed in a sealant that suits the render.
Cladding and façade panels
Panel systems often rely on sealant between and around the panels. Each joint gets a sealant that suits the panel and its movement.
Outside joints around Princes Risborough
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Homes close to St Teresa's Church include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Schools such as Princes Risborough School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. Rented homes near Princes Risborough station change hands often, and outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

Your questions about external mastic in Princes Risborough
Is Princes Risborough within the area you cover?
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.

Do you use backing rod?
The foam is closed-cell backing rod. It keeps the sealant at the right depth and bonded to the sides only.
How often do external joints need resealing?
That varies with the weather the wall faces, how much it moves and the sealant used. Treat it as a maintenance item and look at it yearly.
Can you seal joints between render and window frames?
Yes. Where different materials meet is one of the most common joints we seal. We use a flexible sealant suited to both surfaces.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can you match the colour of my brickwork?
The sealant colour is picked to suit the wall. Exterior sealants come in a good range of colours.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep soil, plants and ivy away from the joints
- Look over the joints every year, ideally after winter
- Deal with leaking gutters that soak the joints below
- Have failed joints looked at early
Keep the joints clear of soil, plants and climbing growth. Damp material against the sealant shortens its life.
Small splits are the time to act. Then it’s a straightforward cut-out and reseal with no damage behind it to deal with.
What affects the quote in Princes Risborough
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The product the joint needs
- Access and height
- How much there is to do
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The rough size of the job

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a job in Princes Risborough, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by checking each joint, agreeing the ones to redo and how we will reach them.
- The old mastic and anything lodged in the joint is removed.
- The joint faces are cleaned and primed where the sealant needs it.
- Backing rod goes in next, setting the depth and keeping the sealant off the back of the joint.
- We gun in a flexible exterior sealant in a colour that suits the wall and tool it neatly.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
