External mastic for homes and businesses in Rushmoor
A movement joint is a deliberate break that lets a wall expand and contract. Its sealant has to flex with the building, season after season, and when it fails, the wall takes the strain and water finds a way in. If you have joints pointed up with cement by mistake and cracked joints where brick meets render or frames, we can help, whatever the surface.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Rushmoor is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Outside joints around Rushmoor
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. With historic houses such as Farnham Castle (about 4.8 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Rushmoor as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.

What happens if it’s left?
Running new sealant over the old bead rarely lasts. The new layer can’t bond properly to old, weathered material, so the old joint is cut out fully first. Older cottages and farmhouses around Rushmoor can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

Do you need external mastic in Rushmoor?
If plants are growing out of a joint, the sealant has usually failed or was never there. Roots and dirt hold water against the wall and speed up the damage.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant
- Hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
- Water getting into walls through failed joints
Rented homes near Farnham station change hands often, and split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.
Questions to ask before you book

- How much experience the applicator has

How the job changes by surface
Brickwork movement joints
Brick moves with heat and moisture, and grows a little over time. That movement goes into the joint, so the sealant in it must stay soft and stretchy.
Joints between dissimilar materials
Each side of the joint may need its own preparation. Both surfaces are cleaned and primed as the product requires.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. In a small place like Rushmoor, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
- Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
- Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
- Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Your questions about external mastic in Rushmoor
Do you cover smaller places like Rushmoor?
Yes, Rushmoor is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you do external mastic in Rushmoor?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Rushmoor is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
How long does external mastic last?
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.
What is backing rod for?
We fit closed-cell backing rod wherever the joint depth needs controlling. It controls the depth and stops the sealant bonding to the back.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Will the new joint stand out?
The sealant colour is picked to suit the wall, so the joint sits quietly in the wall. Exterior sealants come in a good range of colours.
