About our external mastic in Wyke
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. We’re often asked to deal with joints where the bead has come unstuck and joints with sealant missing in places, across joints between brick and frames, façade panels and render & cladding joints.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Wyke is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Leave it or put it right?
It often makes sense to reseal all the failing joints on an elevation together. Joints of the same age tend to fail together and it means sorting access once. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Wyke, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Wyke needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We inspect the joints and agree which need resealing and how they’ll be reached.
- The old mastic and anything lodged in the joint is removed.
- We clean both faces of the joint and prime them where the product calls for it.
- Closed-cell backing rod is fitted to set the depth and stop three-sided bonding.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied and tooled in a colour to suit the wall.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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.
What else we do in Wyke
Common questions in Wyke
Do you cover Wyke for external mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Wyke is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords with property near Ash station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything isn’t right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
How often do external joints need resealing?
That depends on the wall, the weather and the movement. Signs to watch for are cracking, hardening and gaps at the edges and have them redone then.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you need external mastic in Wyke?
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.
The most common problems we see are:
- Hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving
- Movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant
- Leaking joints around cladding and façade panels
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
Rented homes near Ash station change hands often, and split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.
Before you book anyone
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How much experience the applicator has
- Are they insured?
Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Structural movement, which needs a surveyor or engineer
- Walls that need new movement joints cut into them
- Damp that is not coming from the joint
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Wyke buildings and the weather
With historic houses such as Wanborough Manor (about 2.2 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Wyke as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Schools such as Wyke Primary School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
