External mastic for homes and businesses in West Hanney
On houses, flats and commercial buildings across West Hanney, we reseal joints in brickwork, render, cladding and façade panels. Every joint gets the same careful preparation: clean, sound faces and a controlled depth. We’re often asked to deal with failed seals between different materials and panel joints letting water in, across render & cladding joints, façade panels and copings & trims.
In a village or hamlet like West Hanney, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in West Hanney and everywhere else we cover.

The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as West Hanney, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Each joint is checked and the colour of the new sealant agreed.
- Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
- Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
- Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
- A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Surface by surface
Cladding and façade panels
Metal and composite panels move a lot with temperature, so the joints work hard every day. We choose the product to suit.
Concrete and blockwork
The face of concrete or block is often dusty, so preparation is key. We prime where the sealant needs it before sealing.

Do you need external mastic in West Hanney?
Many joints fail because they were sealed too deep or with nothing behind them. Sealant bonded to three sides has nowhere to go and rips as the joint opens.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving
- Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left
- Rigid filler in a joint that should flex
- Sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render
Schools such as St James Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Leave it or put it right?
Low-modulus sealants stretch easily, so they put less strain on the joint edges. That protects surfaces like brick, render and concrete. A stiffer product can damage the joint edge as it fails. In a small place like West Hanney, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in West Hanney
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in West Hanney and across Oxfordshire. Several sites can be quoted together.
Outside joints around West Hanney
Historic houses like Longworth House (about 4.2 miles north) are a reminder that the area around West Hanney has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. 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 an older house near a landmark such as Church of St James, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
