What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on. The job usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. Somewhere as small as Whistley Green, 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.
- Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
- Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
- A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
External mastic in Whistley Green
Joints in render and cladding are easy to overlook until a damp patch appears. We inspect them, agree which need doing and reseal with a weatherproof, flexible sealant in a colour to suit. If you’re dealing with cracked joints where brick meets render or frames and rigid filler in a joint that should flex, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older homes in small places like Whistley Green may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Should I try it myself first?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Tell anyone working on the walls about the movement joints
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
- Keep high-pressure jets off the joints
- Clear growth from the base of walls and joints
Don’t paint over the new sealant unless we have said the product is paintable. Paint can crack on a flexible joint and spoil the finish.
If you can see gaps, plants or bare sections in a joint, have it checked. Early work is quicker and leaves a better finish.

Do you need external mastic in Whistley Green?
A lot of failed joints come down to preparation: dusty or wet faces, no primer where one was needed, or old sealant left in. The sealant never bonds properly.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render
- Plants rooting in failed movement joints
- Movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant
- Brick movement joints where the sealant has split
Managing a site like St Nicholas Church of England Primary? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Why it’s worth doing now in Whistley Green
Pointing a movement joint with mortar might seem a neat fix, but it locks the joint solid. The wall then cracks somewhere else. The correct repair is a flexible sealant with the right backing. In a small place like Whistley Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
