Why act early in Temple Park
A properly done movement joint is an even line in a colour that suits the wall. A hurried job with smeared edges and no backing looks worse and fails sooner. In a smaller place like Temple Park, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.
What you get with us
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
External mastic in Temple Park, done properly
A movement joint is a deliberate break that lets a wall expand and contract. Its sealant has to flex with the building, season after season, so once it splits or hardens, the joint stops working and water gets in. If you’re dealing with brick movement joints where the sealant has split and rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint, we can put it right, on façade panels, copings & trims and concrete & block alike.
In and around Temple Park, older properties sit alongside newer ones, each with its own outside joints. Older homes need their gutter and trim joints kept tight, newer ones their movement joints.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What we are called out for in Temple Park
Sunlight, wet weather and frost wear exterior sealant down. Over the years it hardens, cracks on the surface and loses its give, so the joint eventually tears or comes away from one side.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
- Failed sealant between panels on a façade
- Movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
Schools such as Meadow Vale Primary School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. For a job in Temple Park, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by checking each joint, agreeing the ones to redo and how we will reach them.
- Old sealant and any debris are cut and raked out.
- The joint faces are cleaned and primed where the sealant needs it.
- Backing rod goes in next, setting the depth and keeping the sealant off the back of the joint.
- We gun in a flexible exterior sealant in a colour that suits the wall and tool it neatly.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any tricky access

Walls and rooflines in Temple Park
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Temple Park is part of Bracknell, one of the post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades and were built in phases, so whole streets can have gutters, trims and wall joints reaching the end of their life together.
If you let a flat or house near Bracknell station, split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside. For an older house near a landmark such as St Andrew, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Temple Park: your questions answered
Is Temple Park within the area you cover?
Yes. Temple Park is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Should the sealant in an older Temple Park home be renewed?
If it hasn’t been replaced for some years, it’s usually worth it. Sealant doesn’t last for ever, and its life depends on use, cleaning and weather.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we are fully insured.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
How long does external mastic last?
It varies from wall to wall: sunny, exposed elevations and busy joints wear faster. A yearly look will tell you when they need doing. Our work comes with a one-year guarantee.
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
