Surface by surface
Copings and trims
Copings expand and contract through the day, so a flexible sealant suits them best year round.
Brickwork movement joints
Brick moves with heat and moisture, and grows a little over time. The movement joint takes that up, so the sealant in it must stay soft and stretchy.

Signs you need external mastic in Soberton Heath
A lot of failed joints come down to preparation: dusty or wet faces, no primer where one was needed, or old sealant left in. The new sealant then lets go long before it should.
The most common problems we see are:
- Hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving
- Joints pointed up with cement by mistake
- Sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render
- Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of the Holy Trinity, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Soberton Heath: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee on external mastic in Soberton Heath?
All our work, in Soberton Heath and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Soberton Heath within the area you cover?
Yes, Soberton Heath is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Will the new joint stand out?
There’s a good range of exterior colours, including greys, browns, whites and stone tones. We pick the one that suits your wall best.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. Somewhere as small as Soberton Heath, 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.
- Backing rod sized to the joint goes in to set the depth.
- The exterior sealant is applied, tooled and checked along its length.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it
- Wash walls gently around the sealant
- Fix overflowing gutters above sealed joints
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
Keep the joints clear of soil, plants and climbing growth. Anything that holds water against the joint wears it out sooner.
If you can see gaps, plants or bare sections in a joint, have it checked. Earlier resealing means a smaller job and a better result.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Why it’s worth doing now in Soberton Heath
Sealing over the top of old mastic doesn’t hold for long. The new layer cannot bond properly to old, weathered material, so the old joint is cut out fully first. Around Soberton Heath, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
