External mastic in Wolverton Common, done properly
Many failed façade joints only get noticed once there’s a stain or a damp patch inside. We inspect them, agree which need doing and reseal with a weatherproof, flexible sealant. We work on concrete & block, joints between brick and frames and copings & trims, and the jobs we see most are hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving and sealant pulling away from one side of the joint.
Around Wolverton Common, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. Where one material meets another is where water usually gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Common questions in Wolverton Common
Will you come out to Wolverton Common?
Yes. Wolverton Common is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Midgham station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
How often do external joints need resealing?
It varies with how exposed the wall is and how much the joint moves. Signs to watch for are cracking, hardening and gaps at the edges.
Can you reach joints on upper floors?
Each building is different. Send us pictures and a rough idea of the height.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.

What happens if it’s left?
A properly done movement joint is an even line in a colour that suits the wall. A rushed bead with no backing looks untidy and does not last. In a small place like Wolverton Common, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Do you need external mastic in Wolverton Common?
Some movement joints have been pointed up with mortar. With the joint locked solid, the movement turns into cracks elsewhere in the wall.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
- Rigid filler in a joint that should flex
- Joints where the bead has come unstuck
- Panel joints letting water in
Managing a site like The Hurst School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.
Comparing quotes
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What product goes in the joint
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What happens if the job turns out different
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. Somewhere as small as Wolverton Common, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- Backing rod sized to the joint goes in to set the depth.
- We apply the sealant, tool it and check the whole run.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Surface by surface
Cladding and façade panels
Panels heat up and cool down quickly, so the joint sealant has to cope with frequent movement. The sealant is chosen with that in mind.
Copings and trims
Copings expand and contract through the day, so the joints need a sealant that stays flexible.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Fix overflowing gutters above sealed joints
- Look over the joints every year, ideally after winter
- Show decorators and builders where the movement joints are
- Leave the joints unpainted unless we’ve said otherwise
Look over the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Watch for splits, edges coming away or growth in the joint.
Act while the splits are small. Then it’s a straightforward cut-out and reseal before water has had years to get in.
