Sand mastic in Egham Hythe

Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Egham Hythe

Burnt sand mastic is a traditional material that sits naturally against stone and brick. It suits period and listed homes, where modern sealant can look out of place. We work on brick reveals, sash and case windows and stone surrounds, and the jobs we see most are mastic that needs renewing before redecorating and old cement repairs round a window that have failed.

Around Egham Hythe, conservatories, garden rooms and patio doors are often part of the house. Their glazing joints and frame seals are as much a part of the job as the windows, and any older timber or sash windows need a sealant that suits them.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

When it isn’t the sealant

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Whether work needs listed building consent
  • Crumbling stone or brickwork round the window
  • Decayed frames that need repair

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Where we work in Egham Hythe

  • Brick reveals

Different surfaces, different methods

Brick reveals

Loose mastic comes out and deep gaps are packed before the new mastic goes in.

Where a building is shared, window work may involve neighbours, so check who is responsible first.

Egham Hythe: your questions answered

Do you cover Egham Hythe for sand mastic?

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Is it possible to take out silicone and use sand mastic instead?

Often, yes. Once the silicone is out and the joint prepared, sand mastic is applied by hand.

Are you insured?

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.

Do the sealants smell?

Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Egham Hythe homes and the weather

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Botleys Mansion (about 3.5 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Egham Hythe as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

In the older streets around St Paul's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you let a flat or house near Egham station, cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.

The process

At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a few hours for a single window, longer for several, depending on the amount of work. In a smaller place like Egham Hythe, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. We start by checking each surround and agreeing the joints to renew.
  2. We rake out the old mastic and clean the joint.
  3. Deep voids are packed so the mastic is the right thickness.
  4. The mastic is mixed, pressed into the joint by hand and shaped.
  5. The finish is dressed so it sits neatly against the stone or brick.

How to prepare

  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
  • Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
  • Check the mastic when you check the paintwork
  • Keep modern sealant off the mastic

Leave the new mastic unpainted, as traditional guidance advises. If you are redecorating, ask us first.

Sound mastic protects the frame. Failed mastic lets water reach the timber and timber that stays wet can rot.

Why deal with it now?

New mastic over crumbling mastic won’t hold. We remove the loose material first so the new work lasts. In a smaller place like Egham Hythe, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Signs you need sand mastic in Egham Hythe

Sand mastic slowly weathers. It hardens, cracks and starts to come away on the stone or timber.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Open joints round the window box
  • Window mastic to renew ahead of painting
  • Old cement repairs round a window that have failed
  • Silicone on a period window that looks wrong

If you look after a building such as Thorpe Lea Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
