External mastic in Row Town

How the job changes by surface

Copings and trims

Joints in copings, parapets and trims are exposed to the worst of the weather. Each is resealed with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.

Brickwork movement joints

Brick moves with heat and moisture, and grows a little over time. That movement goes into the joint, so its sealant has to stay flexible.

External mastic in Row Town, done properly

On houses, flats and commercial buildings across Row Town, we reseal joints in brickwork, render, cladding and façade panels. Every joint gets the same careful preparation: clean joint faces and the right depth. We work on brickwork movement joints, façade panels and concrete & block, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render and failed sealant between panels on a façade.

In a smaller place like Row Town, some homes face open ground, and walls and rooflines facing the weather take the worst of it. That’s where gutter joints and wall joints tend to fail first.

Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Row Town and across Surrey.

Row Town: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Addlestone station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Is Row Town in your area for external mastic?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Row Town is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Can you reach joints on upper floors?

That depends on the building and the joints. We work on joints that can be reached safely. Give us some details and we’ll confirm the access.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

How long before the joint can be used?

It depends on the product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Is it worth trying it myself?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Will the new joint stand out?

There’s a good range of exterior colours, including greys, browns, whites and stone tones. We choose the closest to your brick or render so it doesn’t stand out.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, wherever you are.

Outside joints around Row Town

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. Historic houses like Botleys Mansion (about 1.4 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Row Town has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.

Rented homes near Addlestone station change hands often, and outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. Schools such as Holy Family Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

DIY versus a professional finish

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

When it isn’t the sealant

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Failed render or damaged cladding panels
  • Structural movement, which needs a surveyor or engineer
  • Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints

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

What we seal

  • Brickwork movement joints
  • Render & cladding joints
  • Joints between brick and frames
  • Copings & trims
  • Façade panels
  • Concrete & block

The process

You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building for a typical job. Parking around Row Town is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
  2. Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
  3. Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
  4. Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
  5. A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Common problems we fix in Row Town

UV, rain and frost all age exterior sealant. In time it goes hard, crazes on the surface and stops stretching, so the joint eventually tears or comes away from one side.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Brick movement joints where the sealant has split
  • Sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render
  • Failed seals between different materials
  • Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left

If you live in an older home near St Paul's, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What insurance they hold
  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and commercial work in Row Town

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can go on one quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Row Town

A properly done movement joint is an even line in a colour that suits the wall. A hurried job with smeared edges and no backing looks worse and fails sooner, so it pays to do it properly once. In an older home around Row Town, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
