Sand mastic in Cyprus
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 wind and rain getting in round a sash window and modern sealant on a period surround, on stone surrounds, brick reveals and sash and case windows.
London homes have every kind of window, from timber sashes in period terraces to aluminium and uPVC in newer blocks. Over the years, the sealant around them shrinks, cracks and pulls away, which is when draughts and damp patches appear in homes in Cyprus.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

What else we do in Cyprus
Landlord and commercial work in Cyprus
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Cyprus. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- 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.
- The mastic is mixed, pressed into the joint by hand and shaped.
- The mastic is finished to sit tidily against the stone or brick.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Find out about consent before window work on a listed home
- Leave the new mastic unpainted
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
- Keep modern sealant off the mastic
Keep paint scrapers and sanders off the mastic when redecorating. Hard scraping can loosen it.
Gaps round a sash box let in draughts and rain. Left, the gap tends to get bigger.
Different surfaces, different methods
Brick reveals
Brick reveals round timber windows are often pointed with sand mastic. It gives a traditional finish.
Sash and case windows
The box of a sash and case window sits in the stone or brick opening. The gap round it is pointed with sand mastic.
Cyprus homes and the weather
Historic houses like Eastbury Manor House (about 2.3 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Cyprus has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so check that before you book.
In the older streets around St Michael and All Angels Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. As a London address, Cyprus can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

What happens if it’s left?
A silicone bead can be quicker, but on period stone or brick it often looks out of place. Sand mastic is the traditional material and blends with the stone or brick. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Cyprus, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
