About our sand mastic in Brunswick Park
Traditional burnt sand mastic that sits naturally against stone and brick. It suits period and listed homes, where modern sealant can look out of place. If you have mastic that needs renewing before redecorating and a silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look, we can help, whatever the surface.
London homes have every kind of window, from timber sashes in period terraces to aluminium and uPVC in newer blocks. The mastic around them dries out and cracks with age, which is when draughts and damp patches appear in homes in Brunswick Park.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

When to call us in Brunswick Park
Over the years, sand mastic weathers. It dries out, cracks and loses its grip on the stone or timber.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Silicone on a period window that looks wrong
- Draughty sash windows at the surround
- Gaps round a timber door in stone or brick
- Open joints round the window box
For an older house near a landmark such as Oakleigh Community Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Questions to ask before you book

What else we do in Brunswick Park
Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Sort the mastic before the decorators arrive
- Get any rot dealt with first
- Take care around the mastic when scraping paint
- Leave the new mastic unpainted
Do not run silicone over the new mastic. If you see a crack, ask us to take a look rather than patching it.
It’s best to renew mastic before painting the windows. Paint over cracked mastic only covers it up.
Sand mastic in Brunswick Park: local notes
Historic houses like Bruce Castle (about 3.6 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Brunswick Park has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Rented homes near New Southgate station change hands often, and older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out. Schools such as St Andrew the Apostle Greek Orthodox School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
