External mastic in Whiteley Village
We cut out failed sealant, set the joint depth with closed-cell backing rod and reseal with a low-modulus exterior sealant. The colour is chosen to suit the brick or render so the joint doesn’t stand out. We work on copings & trims, façade panels and render & cladding joints, and the jobs we see most are panel joints letting water in and brick movement joints where the sealant has split.
Older homes in small places like Whiteley Village may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water generally gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Whiteley Village and everywhere else we cover.

Common problems we fix in Whiteley Village
Poor preparation causes many early failures: joint faces that were dusty or damp, unprimed where they needed it, or still carrying old sealant. The new sealant then lets go long before it should.
The most common problems we see are:
- Plants rooting in failed movement joints
- Brick movement joints where the sealant has split
- Panel joints letting water in
- Movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant
For landlords with property near Weybridge station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

External mastic in Whiteley Village: local notes
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. Historic houses like The Homewood (about 1.8 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Whiteley Village has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Notre Dame Senior School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mark, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Look over the joints every year, ideally after winter
- Get split or bare joints resealed while the damage is small
- Tell anyone working on the walls about the movement joints
- Never let anyone fill a movement joint with mortar
Have a quick look at the joints each spring. Watch for splits, edges coming away or growth in the joint.
Once a joint can’t move, the wall finds another way, often as cracks near the joint. Catch it early and you reduce the risk.
What happens if it’s left?
An open joint keeps letting water into the wall with every downpour. Wet masonry is more easily damaged by frost, so the problem grows beyond the joint itself. Around Whiteley Village, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. Somewhere like Whiteley Village needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, the joints are inspected and the access agreed.
- 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.
- We fit closed-cell backing rod to control the depth.
- We apply the sealant, tool it and check the whole run.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any parking rules near the property

What affects the cost of external mastic
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much there is to do
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Working hours on commercial sites
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.
Landlord and commercial work in Whiteley Village
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
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.

Why is there a gap in my brick wall?
A movement joint is a planned break in the wall that absorbs expansion and shrinkage. It should be filled with flexible sealant, never mortar.
Is it OK to fill a movement joint with cement?
No, not where the gap is a movement joint. Pointing it stops it working. We will reseal it with a flexible sealant.
