Sand Mastic in Brenzett
We cover Brenzett for traditional burnt sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors in stone and brick. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Cracked mastic round a front door frame
- Weathered mastic on the most exposed windows
- Modern sealant on a period surround
Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Brenzett
Old sand mastic cracks, crumbles and falls out over time and gaps open up round the frame. We rake it out and renew it and tidies the surround. If you are dealing with a silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look and weathered mastic on the most exposed windows, we can put it right, on brick reveals, stone surrounds and timber door frames alike.
In a village or hamlet like Brenzett, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Brenzett and everywhere else we cover.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
- Ask us before painting near the mastic
- Get any rot dealt with first
- Take care around the mastic when scraping paint
Keep gutters and sills clear so water runs away from the surround. Constant wetting wears the mastic faster.
It’s best to renew mastic before painting the windows. Painting over failed mastic hides the problem for a while.

- Old mastic and any loose material are raked out.

Brenzett questions
Is Brenzett within the area you cover?
Yes, Brenzett is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you do sand mastic in Brenzett?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Brenzett is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.

Generally, yes. With the silicone removed and the joint cleaned, sand mastic is applied by hand.

Should I check with the council before work on a listed or conservation-area home?
Your local planning authority is the one to ask. They’ll tell you if consent is needed for work to your windows.
How the job changes by surface

Period homes look their best with traditional materials, and sand mastic is one of them.
Brick reveals
Brick reveals round timber windows are often pointed with sand mastic. It gives a traditional finish.
Brenzett homes and the weather
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Managing a site like Brenzett Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Homes close to St Eanswith's Church include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Rented homes near Appledore (Kent) station change hands often, and older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out.

What happens if it’s left?
A silicone bead can be quicker, but on period stone or brick it often looks out of place. Sand mastic is the traditional material and finishes neatly against the masonry. In a small place like Brenzett, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
