About our external mastic in West Tisted
Short cuts in external joints show up within a season or two. Overfilled joints, missing backing rod and sealant laid over old sealant all tend to fail early. We take the old material out and do it properly. We’re often asked to deal with failed seals between different materials and movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant, across render & cladding joints, façade panels and brickwork movement joints.
Around West Tisted, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

How the job changes by surface
Cladding and façade panels
Cladding and façade panels are generally separated by sealed joints. We reseal them with a sealant suited to the panel material.
Copings and trims
Coping joints that leak let water straight down into the wall. Resealing them is a small job that protects a lot.
What external mastic looks like in West Tisted
Historic houses like Hinton Ampner House (about 3.6 miles west) are a reminder that the area around West Tisted 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. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Around West Tisted, as everywhere, external mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How the visit works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. The work usually takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Each joint is checked and the colour of the new sealant agreed.
- We take out the old sealant until the faces are sound.
- Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
- Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.

Why deal with it now?
Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it locks the joint solid. The wall then cracks somewhere else. The correct repair is a flexible sealant with the right backing. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like West Tisted, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

When to call us in West Tisted
UV, rain and frost all age exterior sealant. Over the years it hardens, cracks on the surface and loses its give, so the next time the wall moves, it splits or pulls away.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant
- Cracked joints where brick meets render or frames
- Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
- Movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant
In the older streets around Church of St Mary Magdalene, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
