- Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
- Rigid filler in a joint that should flex
- Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
External mastic in Shamley Green, done properly
Low-level joints can normally be done from the ground. For joints higher up, give us some details of the building and we will confirm what access is needed. Typical jobs include weathered mastic that no longer stretches and damp patches traced to an open external joint, across joints between brick and frames, concrete & block and render & cladding joints.
Somewhere as small as Shamley Green, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

Why act early in Shamley Green
A low-modulus sealant is chosen because it moves without pulling hard at the edges. That matters on brick, render and concrete, which can be weaker at the face. A stiffer product can damage the joint edge as it fails. Around Shamley Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before we start.

For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. 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, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. Somewhere like Shamley Green needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided 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.
- Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
- We prime the faces where required.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Have failed joints looked at early
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
- Point out the joints to other trades
- Ask before painting over external sealant
Don’t let soil, plants or ivy build up against the new joints. Anything that holds water against the joint wears it out sooner.
An open movement joint lets rain into the wall every time it pours. That can lead to damp patches, staining and frost damage.

Shamley Green questions
Will you come out to Shamley Green?
Yes. Shamley Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Chilworth station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Is it messy?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can you seal joints between two different materials?
Yes. Joints between dissimilar materials are a big part of external work. The sealant is chosen to bond to both sides, primed where needed.
Will the new joint stand out?
We aim for a joint that suits the wall rather than one that jumps out. We will talk through colour options before work begins from the range available.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
- Adding movement joints to masonry that has none
- Render that is blown, hollow or coming away
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Walls and rooflines in Shamley Green
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 Chilworth Manor (about 2.5 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Shamley Green as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
If you let a flat or house near Chilworth station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. Homes close to Christ Church include some older properties, and an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. Schools such as Wonersh and Shamley Green CofE Aided Primary School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.
