About sand mastic in Surrey

On many period windows, sand mastic looks right and suits the building. On modern frames we’d normally use a flexible sealant, and we will talk through which suits your home. Typical jobs include mastic worn away on windows facing the weather and patchy fillers round a sash window, on period & listed homes, brick reveals and stone surrounds.

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Each surround is checked first.
The joint is raked out and cleaned.
Large voids are packed out.
We point the joint with sand mastic by hand.
The finish is dressed neatly.

How we quote

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Sand mastic across Surrey: local notes

From Guildford, Woking and Camberley to its smaller places, Surrey has windows and doors of every age and material. Each needs the right sealant, and every joint wears out eventually.

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outdoor sealant still needs a dry day and clean surfaces, so outside work in Surrey is planned around the forecast.

Guildford: If you look after a building such as Sandfield Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Evangelist, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

When something else is needed

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

Rotten sashes, sills or window boxes (a joiner’s job)
Whether work needs listed building consent
Broken panes

Common problems we fix in Surrey

Scraping and sanding before painting can loosen old mastic. It’s often found when windows are being prepared for paint.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

Open joints round the window box
Mastic round period door frames that has failed
Wind and rain getting in round a sash window
A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

If you manage several properties in or around Surrey, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Quotes for sand mastic in Surrey

Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:

Whether the work is at height
How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
When we can work, for business premises
The type of sealant required

Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

What to tell us for a quote

You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

The address or postcode of the job
If someone has resealed it before
What’s wrong with the joints now
If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Questions from Surrey

How long does sand mastic take to harden?

A skin forms quite soon, but full hardening takes longer. We will tell you what to expect for your job.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before any work starts.

Are you insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

Can I paint the new mastic?

It’s traditionally left unpainted, which is what traditional guidance recommends. Ask us before decorating.

Can tenants book the work?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels in Surrey.
