Sand mastic in Angmering, done properly
Sand mastic doesn’t last for ever, leaving gaps round the window. We rake it out and renew it so the surround looks right again. We are often asked to deal with old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out and mastic worn away on windows facing the weather, on tenement windows, sash and case windows and stone surrounds.
Around Angmering, conservatories, garden rooms and patio doors are often part of the house. Those joints need the same attention as the main windows.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. A visit to Angmering is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We check the window surrounds and agree which joints need renewing.
- The loose and crumbling mastic is raked out and the joint cleaned.
- Large voids are packed out first, so the mastic is not too thick.
- We mix the sand mastic and apply it by hand, shaping it to the joint.
- The finish is dressed so it sits neatly against the stone or brick.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Angmering
Silicone might seem the quicker option, but it can look wrong on a period surround. Sand mastic suits the building and blends with the stone or brick. In a smaller place like Angmering, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Angmering

Quotes for sand mastic in Angmering
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- Any mould that needs treating
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number of rooms or windows
- Working hours on commercial sites
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The rough size of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
- What’s wrong with the joints now
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
Angmering: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Angmering station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Does living near the coast affect sand mastic in Angmering?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.
Should I use sand mastic or silicone?
For period timber windows in stone or brick, sand mastic is often the better fit. On modern frames, we’d normally use a flexible sealant.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee applies on every job.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Is consent needed for window work on a listed home?
Check with your local planning authority. They’ll tell you if consent is needed for work to your windows.

Frames and glazing around Angmering
Angmering is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on the mastic around older windows and doors, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Historic houses like Ecclesden Manor (about 0.4 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Angmering has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Wilfrids Catholic Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Angmering station, cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about. Homes close to The Parish Church of St Margaret include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Clear gutters so water doesn’t pour onto the windows
- Ask a joiner to look at soft timber first
- Take care around the mastic when scraping paint
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
Check the mastic when you check the paintwork. Catching cracks early keeps repairs small.
Sound mastic protects the frame. Failed mastic lets water reach the timber and timber that stays wet can rot.
When something else is needed
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Timber that has rotted
- Sashes that rattle, stick or will not open
- Cracked or broken glass

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
