How we handle external mastic in Wealdstone
Ground-floor and low-level joints are straightforward to reach. For joints higher up, give us some details of the building and we’ll confirm what access is needed. We work on render & cladding joints, copings & trims and brickwork movement joints, and the jobs we see most are joints with sealant missing in places and joints where the bead has come unstuck.
Outside work in London starts with access: side passages, upper floors and where to park. For a home in Wealdstone, tell us how high the joints are and how to reach the back of the building.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Surface by surface
Concrete and blockwork
The face of concrete or block is often dusty, so preparation is key. We prime where the sealant needs it before the bead.
Brickwork movement joints
People sometimes point up a brick movement joint by mistake. Where one has been mortared, we cut it out and reseal it with sealant.
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.

What we’re called out for in Wealdstone
Many joints fail because they were sealed too deep or with nothing behind them. Sealant bonded to three sides has nowhere to go and tears as soon as the joint widens.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Failed seals between different materials
- Movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant
- Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left
- Rigid filler in a joint that should flex
If you live in an older home near Holy Trinity Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

What external mastic looks like in Wealdstone
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. London terraces and converted houses often share gutters, downpipes and walls, so it’s worth agreeing who is responsible before work starts.
If you let a flat or house near Harrow & Wealdstone station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. If you look after a building such as Marlborough Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Your questions about external mastic in Wealdstone
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Wealdstone?
Parking in Wealdstone, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.
I let a flat near Harrow & Wealdstone station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
How long does external mastic take?
Most jobs take a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
How long does external mastic last?
It varies with how exposed the wall is and how much the joint moves. Look for splits, hardening or edges coming away, and reseal at that point.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
