External mastic in South Nutfield, 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’ll confirm what access is needed. We work on joints between brick and frames, façade panels and render & cladding joints, and common reasons people get in touch are weathered mastic that no longer stretches and gaps where render, brick and frames meet.
Around South Nutfield, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere like South Nutfield needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by walking round the building and agreeing the joints and the access.
- Every bit of old sealant and any mortar or debris is cut out.
- Joint faces are cleaned back and primed if the sealant needs it.
- Backing rod sized to the joint goes in to set the depth.
- The exterior sealant is applied, tooled and checked along its length.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice
Questions from South Nutfield
I let a flat near Nutfield station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you cover South Nutfield for external mastic?
Yes, South Nutfield is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Surface by surface
Concrete and blockwork
Concrete and block walls shrink as they dry and move with temperature. Their movement joints are sealed over backing rod with a flexible sealant.
Copings and trims
Coping joints that leak let water straight down into the wall. Resealing them is a small job that protects a lot.
Why it’s worth doing now in South Nutfield
The longer a joint stays open, the more water the wall takes in. Wet masonry is more easily damaged by frost near the open joint, so the problem grows beyond the joint itself. Older cottages and farmhouses around South Nutfield can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What we’re called out for in South Nutfield
Some movement joints have been pointed up with mortar. The joint can’t move, so the wall cracks somewhere else instead.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Weeds or debris growing in open joints
- Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
- Brick movement joints where the sealant has split
- Joints where the bead has come unstuck
Schools such as Nutfield Church CofE Primary School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Outside joints around South Nutfield
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you live in an older home near Christ Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. If you let a flat or house near Nutfield station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Never let anyone fill a movement joint with mortar
- Keep high-pressure jets off the joints
- Ask before painting over external sealant
- Clear growth from the base of walls and joints
Follow the cure time we give you before the joint is knocked or disturbed. Most exterior sealants skin fast but take longer to cure right through.
An open movement joint lets rain into the wall every time it pours. Over time it can mean damp inside, stained render or frost-damaged brick, all bigger jobs than a reseal.
