About our external mastic in Redhill

Joints between dissimilar materials, like brick against render or concrete against a steel frame, see movement from both sides. A flexible exterior sealant takes up that movement where a rigid filler would soon crack. We work on joints between brick and frames, render & cladding joints and concrete & block, and people most often call us about plants rooting in failed movement joints and joints with sealant missing in places.

Garage door frames, porches and roofline trims are all part of external work in a town like Redhill. Each joint between different materials moves in its own way, so the sealant has to cope with that.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Common problems we fix in Redhill

Sunlight, wet weather and frost wear exterior sealant down. In time it goes hard, crazes on the surface and stops stretching, so the joint eventually tears or comes away from one side.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Damp patches traced to an open external joint
  • Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
  • Gaps where render, brick and frames meet
  • Joints where the bead has come unstuck

If you let a flat or house near Redhill station, failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies.

Before you book anyone

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • The length of the guarantee

Choosing a sealant specialist

Different surfaces, different methods

Joints between dissimilar materials

Wherever two materials meet, they move differently. We seal the joint with a flexible exterior sealant.

Brickwork movement joints

Brick moves with heat and moisture, and grows a little over time. The movement joint takes that up, so its sealant has to stay flexible.

The process

Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. A visit in Redhill needs access to the work and a place to park close by. For outside work, let us know about side access, gates and any upper-floor joints.

  1. First, the joints are inspected and the access agreed.
  2. We cut out the old mastic and rake out anything in the joint.
  3. The faces are brushed clean and primed where the product requires it.
  4. Backing rod sized to the joint goes in to set the depth.
  5. The exterior sealant is applied, tooled and checked along its length.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

DIY versus a professional finish

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.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.

When something else is needed

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • Render that’s blown, hollow or coming away
  • Cracked brickwork or render that needs a builder or plasterer
  • Movement that is more than a sealant joint can take

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Outside joints around Redhill

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. In the older streets around Saint Matthew's Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

Why it’s worth doing now in Redhill

Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it locks the joint solid. The wall then cracks somewhere else. A flexible sealant over backing rod is what the joint needs. Around Redhill, failed sealant lets water into hidden places, like the floor under a bath, the back of a panel or the inside of a wall. Whatever the joint, failed sealant only gets worse.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
