About our sand mastic in Byfleet
We work across Byfleet renewing sand mastic on sash windows and doors. Each joint is raked out, prepared and pointed by hand for a neat, traditional finish. If you are dealing with gaps round a timber door in stone or brick and gaps where the frame meets the masonry, we can help.
Houses in smaller places like Byfleet can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

What the job involves on each surface
Timber door frames
A neat sand mastic joint round a front door suits a period home.
Period and listed homes
Period homes look their best with traditional materials.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
How it works
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 per window, depending on the condition of the joints. For a job in Byfleet, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by checking each surround and agreeing the joints to renew.
- The loose and crumbling mastic is raked out and the joint cleaned.
- We pack any deep gaps so the mastic sits at the right depth.
- We mix the sand mastic and apply it by hand, shaping it to the joint.
- We dress the surface so it sits neatly against the masonry.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access

Sand mastic in Byfleet: local notes
Historic houses like Byfleet Manor (about 0.6 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Byfleet has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. Managing a site like St Mary's CofE Controlled Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Take care around the mastic when scraping paint
- Clear gutters so water does not pour onto the windows
- Keep modern sealant off the mastic
- Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
Avoid painting over the new mastic, which is the traditional advice. Ask us before any decorating around it.
Renewing mastic before redecorating saves doing it twice. Painting over failed mastic hides the problem for a while.
