About our sand mastic in Baughurst
Across Baughurst, we renew sand mastic around sash and case windows. Every joint is cleaned out and filled by hand for a neat, traditional finish. Common call-outs are for mastic dropping out of the joint and gaps between timber frames and stone or brick, on sash and case windows, brick reveals and period & listed homes.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Baughurst is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Your questions about sand mastic in Baughurst
Do you cover smaller places like Baughurst?
Yes. Baughurst is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Midgham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is it possible to paint over sand mastic?
Traditional guidance is not to paint over sand mastic. Ask us before you decorate around it and we’ll talk you through it.
Should I use sand mastic or silicone?
Sand mastic usually suits period timber windows best. On modern frames, we’d normally use a flexible sealant.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
- Keep sills and gutters clear so water drains away
- Keep modern sealant off the mastic
- Don’t paint over the new mastic
Don’t run silicone over the new mastic. If anything cracks, get it looked at before trying a quick fix.
Crumbling mastic lets rain into the joint. It can soak into the frame and the surrounding masonry so early renewal protects both.

Signs you need sand mastic in Baughurst
Timber swells and shrinks with the weather. The movement cracks the mastic little by little.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Failed mastic on an exposed elevation
- A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look
- Mastic dropping out of the joint
- Open joints round the window box
Rented homes near Midgham station change hands often, and any sash windows need sound mastic to keep draughts and rain out.
What your quote should include
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Who turns up on the day
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Are they insured?

Frames and glazing around Baughurst
With historic houses such as The Vyne (about 4.6 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Baughurst as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you look after a building such as The Hurst School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Saint Mary's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

- Period & listed homes
- Sash and case windows
- Tenement windows
- Stone surrounds
What happens if it’s left?
Before painting the windows, it pays to renew the mastic. Painting over failed mastic doesn’t seal it and traditional guidance is to leave the new mastic unpainted. Around Baughurst, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
