About our sand mastic in Copse Hill
Our applicators renew the sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors in stone and brick. The old mastic is raked out, and new mastic is applied and shaped by hand. If you have old cement repairs round a window that have failed and mastic that needs renewing before redecorating, we can put it right.
Much of London’s older housing was built with timber sash windows, some still in place and some long since replaced. Whatever is in the opening now, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps the weather out.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Copse Hill: your questions answered
Is parking an issue for sand mastic in Copse Hill?
Parking in Copse Hill, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.
Can you do sand mastic in Copse Hill?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Copse Hill is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
How do I get a quote for sand mastic in Copse Hill?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.
What’s sand mastic made of?
Sand mastic is a traditional material for pointing round windows and doors. It’s made with sand and a linseed-oil-based binder.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
What affects the cost of sand mastic
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
- The amount of work
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. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If someone has resealed it before
- A few pictures by email, if you can
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.
What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints. In Copse Hill, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We check each window surround and the condition of the joint.
- We rake out the old mastic and clean the joint.
- We fill deep gaps so the new mastic is not too thick.
- We point the joint with sand mastic by hand.
- We finish the mastic to a tidy line.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Replacing sash windows is a big decision for a period home and on a listed home, consent may be needed. If the frames are sound, renewing the mastic deals with gaps and draughts at the surround. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Copse Hill, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

Landlord and commercial work in Copse Hill
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
What the job involves on each surface
Tenement and terrace windows
Upper-floor windows need access planning. Let us know the floor and we’ll confirm access.
Timber door frames
Sand mastic is used round timber door frames too. We renew it the same way as on windows.
What sand mastic looks like in Copse Hill
In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so it’s worth checking before booking. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Homes close to Christ Church include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. Rented homes near Raynes Park station change hands often, and any sash windows need sound mastic to keep draughts and rain out. If you look after a building such as Hollymount School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Landmarks near Copse Hill
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to The Norwegian School in London, Crooked Billet pub and Ursuline Preparatory School and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Raynes Park station, about 0.6 miles south of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Wimbledon Museum (0.8 miles north-east) and Atkinson Morley Hospital (within half a mile west). Not far away are Kew Gardens Lake and Henman Hill.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Ask the planning authority about consent for listed or conservation-area homes
- Keep modern sealant off the mastic
- Have rotten timber repaired before new mastic goes in
- Clear gutters so water doesn’t pour onto the windows
Keep gutters and sills clear so water runs away from the surround. Water sitting against the mastic shortens its life.
Once mastic starts to crumble, rain gets in. That water can reach the timber frame and the wall so early renewal protects both.
