Pyle Hill External Mastic
Movement joints in Pyle Hill need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.
- Joints pointed up with cement by mistake
- Plants rooting in failed movement joints
- Panel joints letting water in
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Cutting new joints into brickwork, which is building work rather than sealant work
- Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
- Movement that is more than a sealant joint can take
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Joints between brick and frames
- Render & cladding joints
- Concrete & block
- Brickwork movement joints
- Copings & trims
- Façade panels
External mastic in Pyle Hill, done properly
External mastic is a job where short cuts show quickly. Overfilled joints, missing backing rod and sealant laid over old sealant all tend to fail early. We take the old material out and do it properly. Common call-outs are for joints where the bead has come unstuck and failed sealant between panels on a façade, on copings & trims, façade panels and concrete & block.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Pyle Hill is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Walls and rooflines in Pyle Hill
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Guildford Castle (about 3.7 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Pyle Hill as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
In the older streets around All Souls' Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Schools such as Hoe Valley School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. If you let a flat or house near Worplesdon station, failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies.

Local landmarks in Pyle Hill
Around Pyle Hill, our work takes us to homes and buildings near Drumming Snipe pub, Westfield Primary School and Mayford Meadows and the streets around them.

The countryside around Pyle Hill includes Pewley Hill and Brookwood Lye.
What happens if it’s left?
The longer a joint stays open, the more water the wall takes in. In cold weather, frost can damage wet brick and render, so the problem grows beyond the joint itself. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Pyle Hill, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- More than 20 years in sealant work
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Point out the joints to other trades
- Have failed joints looked at early
- Never let anyone fill a movement joint with mortar
- Fix overflowing gutters above sealed joints
Only paint over the joint if we have confirmed the sealant can take paint. Many exterior sealants are not designed to be painted.
Gaps, plants or missing sealant in a joint are worth getting looked at. Earlier resealing means a smaller job and a better result.
What affects the cost of external mastic
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether the work is at height
- Any mould that needs treating
- The product the joint needs
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Helping us quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details, and photos are welcome.
Questions from Pyle Hill
I let a flat near Worplesdon station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. 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 we start.
Is Pyle Hill in your area for external mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Pyle Hill is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Can you match the colour of my brickwork?
Exterior sealants are made in a range of colours, from greys and browns to whites and stone shades. We choose the closest to your brick or render so the joint does not draw the eye.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
How long before the joint can be used?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.
What should I tell you?
Let us know what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we’re fully insured.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. For a village or hamlet like Pyle Hill, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Each joint is checked and the colour of the new sealant agreed.
- We take out the old sealant until the faces are sound.
- Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
- We prime the faces where required.
- A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
