How we handle sand mastic in Dogmersfield
Silicone on a period window often looks wrong and is not always the right material. Sand mastic is the traditional choice and we can swap the silicone for it. We work on timber door frames, sash and case windows and period & listed homes, and common reasons people get in touch are old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out and failed mastic on an exposed elevation.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Dogmersfield is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Why deal with it now?
An open joint round the frame lets weather in. Water can get to the frame and the masonry, so dealing with it now protects both. Older cottages and farmhouses around Dogmersfield can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
Why us?
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Fully insured
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Ask a joiner to look at soft timber first
- Leave the new mastic unpainted
- Keep sills and gutters clear so water drains away
- Look over the window mastic once a year
Leave the new mastic unpainted, which is the traditional advice. If you’re redecorating, ask us first.
Sound mastic protects the frame. Once it fails, water can sit against the timber, which can lead to rot.
How the job changes by surface
Tenement and terrace windows
In shared buildings, the windows may be part of a wider repair so it’s worth checking responsibilities.

How long does sand mastic take to harden?

What should I tell you?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What’s sand mastic made of?
Sand plus a binder based on linseed oil. It’s applied by hand and shaped to suit the surround.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.

What sand mastic looks like in Dogmersfield
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. With historic houses such as Farnham Castle (about 4.7 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Dogmersfield 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.

Signs you need sand mastic in Dogmersfield
Age is the main cause. Even well-laid mastic needs renewing in time, depending on exposure and upkeep.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look
- Gaps where the frame meets the masonry
- Mastic worn away on windows facing the weather
- Window mastic to renew ahead of painting
If you live in an older home near All Saints' Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
