Sand mastic for sash & case windows in Bramshaw, Hampshire
Window and door surrounds in Bramshaw need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Window mastic to renew ahead of painting
- Open joints round the window box
- Cracked mastic round a front door frame
Leave it or put it right?
Gaps round a sash window let in rain and draughts. Left, water can reach the timber and the wall, so dealing with it now protects both. In a small place like Bramshaw, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

About our sand mastic in Bramshaw
On many period windows, sand mastic looks right and suits the building. Newer frames normally get a flexible sealant instead and we will explain which is best for yours. Typical jobs include weathered mastic on the most exposed windows and a silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look, on sash and case windows, tenement windows and period & listed homes.
Somewhere as small as Bramshaw, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Bramshaw and across Hampshire.

Different surfaces, different methods
Stone surrounds
Sand mastic sits naturally against stone. The finish blends with the masonry.
Timber door frames
Doors face weather and wear and the mastic can crack early. We rake it out and renew it.
When to call us in Bramshaw
Scraping and sanding before painting can loosen old mastic. Many people find it crumbling when they prepare the windows, which is a good time to renew it.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint
- Patchy fillers round a sash window
- Failed mastic on an exposed elevation
- Wind and rain getting in round a sash window
Homes close to Church of St Peter include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Sand mastic in Bramshaw: local notes
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. Historic houses like Landford Manor (about 2.3 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Bramshaw has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Around Bramshaw, as everywhere, sand mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere as small as Bramshaw, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check each window surround and the condition of the joint.
- We rake out the old mastic and clean the joint.
- We fill deep gaps so the new mastic isn’t too thick.
- We point the joint with sand mastic by hand.
- The finish is dressed neatly.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
