The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. In a smaller place like Pyrford, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We start by walking round the building and agreeing the joints and the access.
- Every bit of old sealant and any mortar or debris is cut out.
- The faces are brushed clean and primed where the product requires it.
- We fit closed-cell backing rod to control the depth.
- The exterior sealant is applied, tooled and checked along its length.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

About our external mastic in Pyrford
Short cuts in external joints show up within a season or two. New sealant over old, joints packed with mortar and beads with no backing all tend to fail early. We strip the joint back and start again. If you’re dealing with joints with sealant missing in places and weathered mastic that no longer stretches, we can help, on copings & trims, concrete & block and brickwork movement joints alike.
Around Pyrford, garages, outbuildings and extensions all add to the joints on the outside of a home. Leaks generally start at a gutter end, a garage door frame or where an extension meets the house.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

When it isn’t the sealant
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Adding movement joints to masonry that has none
- Subsidence or other structural problems
- Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Joints between brick and frames
- Copings & trims
- Brickwork movement joints
- Concrete & block
- Façade panels
- Render & cladding joints
Why deal with it now?
Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it locks the joint solid. The movement then cracks the brickwork or render nearby. A flexible sealant over backing rod is what the joint needs. Around Pyrford, 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.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Walls and rooflines in Pyrford
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Byfleet Manor (about 2.2 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Pyrford has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Schools such as Pyrford Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you live in an older home near Church of the Good Shepherd, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Common problems we fix in Pyrford
If plants are growing out of a joint, the sealant has normally failed or was never there. Roots and dirt hold water against the wall.
People usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Joints pointed up with cement by mistake
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
- Failed seals between different materials
- Movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant
For landlords with property near West Byfleet station, failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies.

Surface by surface
Concrete and blockwork
The face of concrete or block is often dusty, so preparation is key. We prime where the sealant needs it before sealing.
Brickwork movement joints
People sometimes point up a brick movement joint by mistake. Where one has been mortared, we cut it out and reseal it with sealant if the joint can be cleared.

FAQs for Pyrford
Is Pyrford within the area you cover?
Yes. Pyrford is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Pyrford for external mastic?
Yes, Pyrford is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Is it OK to fill a movement joint with cement?
No, not if it’s a movement joint. Pointing it stops it working and can lead to cracking. A flexible sealant is the right fill.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Can you seal joints between two different materials?
Yes. The old joint is removed, both surfaces cleaned and primed where needed, and a flexible sealant applied. The colour is chosen to suit.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
