DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
How we handle sand mastic in Berwick
If your home is listed or in a conservation area, check with your local planning authority whether consent is needed for work to windows. Like-for-like sand mastic is often the preferred finish. If you are dealing with mastic that needs renewing before redecorating and wind and rain getting in round a sash window, we can put it right, on period & listed homes, tenement windows and timber door frames alike.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Berwick is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Landlord and commercial work in Berwick
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
What affects the cost of sand mastic
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
- A few photos by email, if you can
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What sand mastic looks like in Berwick
Berwick is within about 2 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. 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 Westenhanger Castle (about 0.9 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Berwick has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
Letting a property close to Westenhanger station? Then older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out. If you look after a building such as Lympne Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Stephen, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Different surfaces, different methods
Tenement and terrace windows
Rows of sash windows on tenements and terraces often need renewing together. We can do one window or several.
Sash and case windows
The box of a sash and case window sits in the stone or brick opening. Sand mastic seals the joint round it.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
- Get any rot dealt with first
- Plan mastic work ahead of painting
- Leave the new mastic unpainted
Keep paint scrapers and sanders off the mastic when redecorating. It can be damaged by heavy scraping.
Crumbling mastic lets rain into the joint. That water can reach the timber frame and the wall so early renewal protects both.
How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. Somewhere like Berwick needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we agree which joints need doing.
- We remove the old, loose mastic.
- We pack any deep voids first.
- We apply the mastic by hand and shape it.
- The surface is finished to suit the stone or brick.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any parking rules near the property
