About our sand mastic in Barton Stacey
Traditional burnt sand mastic that sits naturally against stone and brick. It’s a good fit for period properties where a modern sealant bead would stand out. Typical jobs include open joints round the window box and failed mastic on an exposed elevation, across timber door frames, tenement windows and stone surrounds.
Around Barton Stacey, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

What the job involves on each surface
Tenement and terrace windows
Rows of sash windows on tenements and terraces often need renewing together. We work on single windows or whole elevations.
Period and listed homes
On a listed home or in a conservation area, the right material matters. Like-for-like sand mastic is normally favoured.
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
Frames and glazing around Barton Stacey
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you let a flat or house near Micheldever station, older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out. Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What affects the cost of sand mastic
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- The size of the job
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the property is
- The problem you’ve noticed
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
For a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the location and a short description of the problem. We will give you a clear quote before any work starts.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Ask the planning authority about consent for listed or conservation-area homes
- Make sure water runs off the sill
- Have rotten timber repaired before new mastic goes in
- Ask us before painting near the mastic
Check the mastic when you check the paintwork. Small cracks are easier to deal with early.
An open joint round the box lets weather through. Left, the gap tends to get bigger as more mastic falls out.
