Curteis' Corner homes and the weather
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Letting a property close to Headcorn station? Then any sash windows need sound mastic to keep draughts and rain out. In the older streets around Parish Church of All Saints, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. If you look after a building such as John Mayne Church of England Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

About our sand mastic in Curteis' Corner
A silicone bead around a sash window can look out of place and is not always the right material. Sand mastic gives a finish that matches the age of the house and we can swap the silicone for it. We work on timber door frames, period & listed homes and brick reveals, and people most often call us about old cement repairs round a window that have failed and open joints round the window box.
In a village or hamlet like Curteis' Corner, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get any rot dealt with first
- Keep sills and gutters clear so water drains away
- Check the mastic when you check the paintwork
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
Look at the mastic when you look over the windows. Catching cracks early keeps repairs small.
Small cracks are a sign the mastic is ageing. It’s easier to renew it before it drops out.

Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints. Somewhere as small as Curteis' Corner, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

What the job involves on each surface
Stone surrounds
Stone surrounds suit sand mastic well. The finish blends with the masonry.
Sash and case windows
On a sash window, the mastic joint shows on the outside so we finish it carefully.
Why it’s worth doing now in Curteis' Corner
Replacing sash windows is a big decision for a period home, and in listed buildings it may need consent. If the frames are sound, renewing the mastic deals with gaps and draughts at the surround. Older cottages and farmhouses around Curteis' Corner can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Curteis' Corner
