Sand mastic in Bramshott Chase
Our applicators renew the sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors in stone and brick. Out comes the old, loose mastic, the joint is prepared and new mastic is shaped by hand. We work on tenement windows, brick reveals and timber door frames, and the jobs we see most are tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint and modern sealant on a period surround.
Somewhere as small as Bramshott Chase, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bramshott Chase as everywhere else we work.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What we cannot put right

- Decisions on consent for listed homes

Quotes for sand mastic in Bramshott Chase
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The size of the job
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the property is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked
- Failed mastic on an exposed elevation
- Gaps where the frame meets the masonry
- Mastic dropping out of the joint
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Woolmer Hill School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a single window, longer for several. Somewhere as small as Bramshott Chase, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking each surround and agreeing the joints to renew.
- The loose and crumbling mastic is raked out and the joint cleaned.
- Large voids are packed out first, so the mastic isn’t too thick.
- Sand mastic is mixed and applied by hand, then shaped to the joint.
- The mastic is finished to sit tidily against the stone or brick.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know about parking restrictions
