About our sand mastic in Durley Street

Sand mastic doesn’t last for ever and gaps open up round the frame. Renewing it closes the gap and tidies the surround. If you have patchy fillers round a sash window and tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint, we can help, whatever the surface.

Somewhere as small as Durley Street, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.

Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

How we quote for sand mastic

We do not publish a price list. What we look at:

  • The amount of work
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • When we can work, for business premises

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What we need to know

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

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • The type of property

We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details, and photos are welcome.

Durley Street homes and the weather

How it works

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for a single window, longer for several for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Durley Street, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We start by checking each surround and agreeing the joints to renew.
  2. Old, loose mastic is raked out and the joint cleaned.
  3. Large voids are packed out first, so the mastic is not too thick.
  4. Sand mastic is mixed and applied by hand, then shaped to the joint.
  5. The mastic is finished to sit tidily against the stone or brick.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Durley Street: your questions answered

Can you do sand mastic in Durley Street?

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

Is Durley Street within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

How do I get a quote for sand mastic in Durley Street?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.

Will it make a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

What we’re called out for in Durley Street

Age is the main cause. Sand mastic is a maintenance item like any pointing and how long it lasts depends on the weather it faces.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint
  • Weathered mastic on the most exposed windows
  • Old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out
  • Gaps between timber frames and stone or brick

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wyvern Technology College, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • What insurance they hold
  • What product goes in the joint

How to choose a mastic man

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • Whether work needs listed building consent
  • Broken panes
  • Timber that has rotted

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
