What external mastic looks like in Tudeley

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.

For landlords with property near Tonbridge station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. Managing a site like The Schools at Somerhill? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. In the older streets around Church of All Saints, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

External mastic in Tudeley, done properly

External mastic is a job where short cuts show quickly. Overfilled joints, missing backing rod and sealant laid over old sealant rarely last long. We take the old material out and do it properly. If you’re dealing with weeds or debris growing in open joints and movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Around Tudeley, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.

Every job comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

How to look after the new joints

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Wash walls gently around the sealant
  • Have failed joints looked at early
  • Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it
  • Don’t let climbing plants root in the sealant

Keep the joints clear of soil, plants and climbing growth. Damp material against the sealant shortens its life.

Leaks behind façade panels and render often go unseen. By the time there’s a damp patch, the damage can be well established so early resealing is worth it.

What happens if it’s left?

An open joint keeps letting water into the wall with every downpour. Wet masonry is more easily damaged by frost near the open joint, so the problem grows beyond the joint itself. In a small place like Tudeley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tudeley

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

What sealant work can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Cutting new joints into brickwork, which is building work rather than sealant work
  • Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint
  • Render that’s blown, hollow or coming away

If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Brickwork movement joints
  • Concrete & block
  • Joints between brick and frames
  • Façade panels
  • Copings & trims
  • Render & cladding joints

What the job involves on each surface

Concrete and blockwork

Big joints in concrete need careful depth control. Backing rod sized to the joint sets it.

Copings and trims

Metal and stone copings both move with temperature, so a flexible sealant suits them best year round.

What we do, step by step

Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Tudeley, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. Each joint is checked and the colour of the new sealant agreed.
  2. We take out the old sealant until the faces are sound.
  3. Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
  4. Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
  5. A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Tudeley: your questions answered

Will you come out to Tudeley?

Yes. Tudeley 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.

Do you cover Tudeley for external mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Tudeley is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.

When is the sealant fully cured?

Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.

What information do you need?

Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.

Is it worth trying it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
