External mastic in Wootton
Low-level joints can normally be done from the ground. For joints higher up, give us some details of the building and we will confirm what’s needed to reach them safely. We work on concrete & block, brickwork movement joints and copings & trims, and the jobs we see most are sealant pulling away from one side of the joint and failed seals between different materials.
Around Wootton, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. For a village or hamlet like Wootton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by checking each joint, agreeing the ones to redo and how we will reach them.
- The old mastic and anything lodged in the joint is removed.
- The joint faces are cleaned and primed where the sealant needs it.
- Backing rod goes in next, setting the depth and keeping the sealant off the back of the joint.
- We gun in a flexible exterior sealant in a colour that suits the wall and tool it neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
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.
What sealant work can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint
- Rising or penetrating damp from elsewhere in the wall
- Walls that need new movement joints cut into them
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Wootton
What affects the quote in Wootton
We do not publish a price list. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs
- Access and height
- The number and length of the joints
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Where the property is
- The rough size of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
- A few pictures by email, if you can
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
External mastic in Wootton: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Avon Tyrrell House (about 3.2 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Wootton has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
If you let a flat or house near New Milton station, split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.

How the job changes by surface
Concrete and blockwork
Wide joints in concrete need the depth controlling carefully. Backing rod sized to the joint sets it and keep the sealant to the right depth.
Joints between dissimilar materials
Each side of the joint may need its own preparation. We prepare both faces so the sealant bonds properly.
When to call us in Wootton
UV, rain and frost all age exterior sealant. Over the years it hardens, cracks on the surface and loses its give, so the joint eventually tears or comes away from one side.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Leaking joints around cladding and façade panels
- Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
- Sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render
- Rigid filler in a joint that should flex
Homes close to St John include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.
What your quote should include
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How much experience the applicator has
- What product goes in the joint
Wootton: your questions answered
Is Wootton in your area for external mastic?
Yes, Wootton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Is Wootton within the area you cover?
Yes, Wootton is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we’re fully insured.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
