Sand mastic for Castle Green homes and businesses

Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Castle Green

We work across Castle Green renewing sand mastic on sash windows and doors. Each joint is raked out, prepared and pointed by hand for a neat, traditional finish. We’re often asked to deal with gaps round a timber door in stone or brick and window mastic to renew ahead of painting, on brick reveals, sash and case windows and tenement windows.

Somewhere as small as Castle Green, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Castle Green as everywhere else we work.

How the job changes by surface

Brick reveals

An open joint at a brick reveal lets weather in. Renewing the mastic closes it.

Timber door frames

Period doors in stone or brick openings are often pointed with sand mastic. We renew it the same way as on windows.

Why it’s worth doing now in Castle Green

Not every draught comes from the sashes themselves. Open mastic joints round the box can let air in, and renewing the mastic closes them. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Castle Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

Frames and glazing around Castle Green

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. With historic houses such as Botleys Mansion (about 4.2 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Castle Green 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.

Homes close to Church of St Lawrence include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Letting a property close to Brookwood station? Then older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out.

Castle Green questions

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Brookwood station?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you cover Castle Green for sand mastic?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Castle Green is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

Can I paint the new mastic?

It’s traditionally left unpainted, which is what traditional guidance recommends. Talk to us before any painting near it.

Can you match the sealant colour?

We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.

Where are you based?

We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Do the sealants smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.

Should I use sand mastic or silicone?

For period timber windows in stone or brick, sand mastic is often the better fit. On modern frames, we’d normally use a flexible sealant.

Quotes for sand mastic in Castle Green

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Whether the work is at height
  • The number and length of the joints

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

What to tell us for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • The type of property
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy

Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details and send photos if you have them.

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Don’t run silicone over sand mastic
  • Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
  • Ask a joiner to look at soft timber first
  • Inspect the joints round the windows every year or so

Keep paint scrapers and sanders off the mastic when redecorating. Hard scraping can loosen it.

Good mastic helps keep the frame dry. Once it fails, water can sit against the timber, which can lead to rot.

Signs you need sand mastic in Castle Green

Most of it is simply age. Even well-laid mastic needs renewing in time, depending on exposure and upkeep.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Wind and rain getting in round a sash window
  • Patchy fillers round a sash window
  • Gaps between timber frames and stone or brick
  • Tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Lawrence CofE (Aided) Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

How to choose a mastic man

How the visit works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints. In a small place like Castle Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First we agree which joints need doing.
  2. Old mastic and any loose material are raked out.
  3. Deep gaps are packed so the mastic sits at the right depth.
  4. We apply the mastic by hand and shape it.
  5. The surface is finished to suit the stone or brick.

Preparing for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Getting a quote

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
