External mastic in Waldershare
Low-level joints can usually be done from the ground. For joints higher up, give us some details of the building and we’ll confirm what’s needed to reach them safely. Common call-outs are for old sealant gone brittle and cracked and joints where the bead has come unstuck, across copings & trims, joints between brick and frames and façade panels.
Around Waldershare, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Waldershare as everywhere else we work.

What affects the quote in Waldershare
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much there is to do
- Any mould that needs treating
- How many areas need sealing
- Which sealant suits the joint
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Where the property is
- The problem you’ve noticed
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Walls and rooflines in Waldershare
With historic houses such as Goodnestone Park (about 4 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Waldershare as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. 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.
Letting a property close to Shepherds Well station? Then failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Eythorne Elvington Community Primary School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you live in an older home near Church of St Pancras, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Rising or penetrating damp from elsewhere in the wall
- Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint
- Render that’s blown, hollow or coming away
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Copings & trims
- Concrete & block
- Brickwork movement joints
- Façade panels
- Render & cladding joints
- Joints between brick and frames
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it
- Make sure movement joints aren’t pointed over
- Wash walls gently around the sealant
- Show decorators and builders where the movement joints are
Keep the joints clear of soil, plants and climbing growth. Damp material against the sealant shortens its life.
Leave a failed movement joint and water keeps getting into the wall. Over time it can mean damp inside, stained render or frost-damaged brick which cost more to put right than the joint.
Why it’s worth doing now in Waldershare
A properly done movement joint is an even line in a colour that suits the wall. A rushed bead with no backing looks untidy and doesn’t last so it’s worth doing right. Around Waldershare, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Common questions in Waldershare
Do you work for landlords with property near Shepherds Well station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you cover smaller places like Waldershare?
Yes, Waldershare is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you use backing rod?
Closed-cell backing rod sets the depth of the sealant and stops it sticking to the back of the joint. That way it bonds to the two sides only and can stretch.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How much does external mastic cost in Waldershare?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Can you match the colour of my brickwork?
The sealant colour is picked to suit the wall, so the joint sits quietly in the wall. There’s a wide choice of exterior colours.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
The process
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. The work generally takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. Somewhere as small as Waldershare, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
