External mastic in Woolmer Hill

About our external mastic in Woolmer Hill

A movement joint is only as good as its depth. Closed-cell backing rod sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back, so it bonds to the two sides only and can stretch. We work on brickwork movement joints, façade panels and copings & trims, and common reasons people get in touch are brick movement joints where the sealant has split and water getting into walls through failed joints.

Older homes in small places like Woolmer Hill 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.

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Check external joints each spring
  • Avoid pressure-washing directly into sealant joints
  • Keep soil, plants and ivy away from the joints
  • Point out the joints to other trades

If you have more work done on the wall, such as new render, cladding or an opening, show the contractor the movement joints. They should be kept open and resealed, not filled.

Leaks behind façade panels and render often go unseen. When it finally shows inside, the joint may have been open for years so early resealing is worth it.

Woolmer Hill: your questions answered

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Haslemere station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you cover Woolmer Hill for external mastic?

Yes, Woolmer Hill is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Can you seal joints between two different materials?

Yes. Joints between dissimilar materials are a big part of external work. We use a flexible sealant suited to both surfaces.

What is a movement joint?

Most straight vertical gaps in brickwork are movement joints. It lets the bricks expand without cracking and needs a flexible seal, not mortar.

Do you work at height?

It depends on the height and the site. Ground-floor joints are simple; for higher ones, send details and we will confirm the access.

How do I get a quote for external mastic in Woolmer Hill?

We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. All our work carries a one-year guarantee.

Why deal with it now?

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 doesn’t last, so it pays to do it properly once. Around Woolmer Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

What happens on the day

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. In a small place like Woolmer Hill, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
  2. Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
  3. Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
  4. Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
  5. We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Related advice

DIY versus a professional finish

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. 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.

How we quote for external mastic

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The size of the job
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Asking for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job.

When to call us in Woolmer Hill

Joints sealed without backing rod, or far too deep, rarely last. If the sealant sticks to the back as well as the sides, it cannot stretch and tears as soon as the joint widens.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Water getting into walls through failed joints
  • Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left
  • Joints with sealant missing in places
  • Cracked joints where brick meets render or frames

Letting a property close to Haslemere station? Then outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What product goes in the joint
  • What happens if the job turns out different

How to choose a mastic man

Woolmer Hill buildings and the weather

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

In the older streets around St Paul, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Managing a site like Camelsdale Primary School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
