What the job involves on each surface
Brickwork movement joints
People sometimes point up a brick movement joint by mistake. If that’s happened, we rake it out and reseal it properly where it can be done safely.
Render joints
Water behind render can lead to blown patches. Resealing the joints early keeps water out.
External mastic for homes and businesses in Stoughton
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. If you have joints where the bead has come unstuck and brick movement joints where the sealant has split, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Outbuildings, garages and conservatories around homes in places like Stoughton add more joints to look after. Leaks generally start at a gutter end, a garage door frame or where an extension meets the house.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Your questions about external mastic in Stoughton
Is Stoughton within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you do external mastic in Stoughton?
Yes, Stoughton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Can you seal joints between render and window frames?
Yes. Different materials move at different rates, so the joint between them must be flexible. We choose one that suits both surfaces.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer.

Leave it or put it right?
An open joint keeps letting water into the wall with every downpour. Wet masonry is more easily damaged by frost, so the problem grows beyond the joint itself. Around Stoughton, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. For a job in Stoughton, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
- 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.
- A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Related advice
What external mastic looks like in Stoughton
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Guildford Castle (about 1.7 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Stoughton 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Stoughton Infant School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Emmanuel Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. If you let a flat or house near Guildford station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
