What external mastic looks like in Simpson
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Bletchley Park (about 1.7 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Simpson has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
If you look after a building such as Charles Warren Academy, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. For landlords with property near Bow Brickhill station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

External mastic in Simpson, done properly
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. If you have failed seals between different materials and joints where the bead has come unstuck, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older homes in small places like Simpson may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water normally gets in.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Simpson and everywhere else we cover.

Questions from Simpson
Is Simpson in your area for external mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Simpson is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bow Brickhill station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
What affects the quote in Simpson
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- The product the joint needs
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the property is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
How the job changes by surface
Cladding and façade panels
If the façade has a specified sealant, that’s what we use, or one the system allows. Tell us what the building has when you get in touch.
Joints between dissimilar materials
Each side of the joint may need its own preparation. We prepare both faces so the sealant bonds properly.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself usually takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Simpson, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the joints are inspected and the access agreed.
- 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
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Do you need external mastic in Simpson?
Many joints fail because they were sealed too deep or with nothing behind them. If the sealant sticks to the back as well as the sides, it can’t stretch and tears as soon as the joint widens.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Brick movement joints where the sealant has split
- Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
- Rigid filler in a joint that should flex
- Joints where the bead has come unstuck
If you live in an older home near Church of St Thomas, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
For anyone letting property in or around Simpson, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Loose or hollow render, which needs re-rendering
- Damp that isn’t coming from the joint
- Cracked brickwork or render that needs a builder or plasterer
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
