Can you do sand mastic in Buriton?
Yes, Buriton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.

Sand mastic in Buriton
Burnt sand mastic is a traditional material blends with stone and brick surrounds. It’s a good fit for period properties, where modern sealant can look out of place. Typical jobs include cracked mastic round a front door frame and silicone on a period window that looks wrong, on tenement windows, sash and case windows and period & listed homes.
Homes in small places like Buriton often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Windows and doors in Buriton
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Uppark (about 3 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Buriton as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you look after a building such as Buriton Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. The work generally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. Somewhere as small as Buriton, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Each surround is checked first.
- We rake out the old mastic and clean the joint.
- We fill deep gaps so the new mastic isn’t too thick.
- New sand mastic is applied and shaped by hand.
- The finish is dressed neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together.
When to call us in Buriton
Some old mastic was never deep enough. A thin layer doesn’t hold well so we make sure the new mastic is the right thickness.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Draughts and rain around sash boxes
- Silicone on a period window that looks wrong
- Gaps where the frame meets the masonry
- Old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out
For landlords with property near Petersfield station, cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.

Quotes for sand mastic in Buriton
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Any mould that needs treating
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the property is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Plan mastic work ahead of painting
- Ask us before painting near the mastic
- Check the mastic when you check the paintwork
- Keep sills and gutters clear so water drains away
Keep paint scrapers and sanders off the mastic when redecorating. It can be damaged by heavy scraping.
Renewing mastic before redecorating saves doing it twice. Painting over failed mastic hides the problem for a while.
