Sand mastic in Foxcotte, done properly
For a listed home or one in a conservation area, ask your local planning authority whether consent is needed for work to windows. Like-for-like sand mastic is often the preferred finish. We’re often asked to deal with a silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look and mastic round period door frames that has failed, on sash and case windows, timber door frames and period & listed homes.
Somewhere as small as Foxcotte, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Do you need sand mastic in Foxcotte?
Some old mastic was never deep enough. Mastic that is too thin cracks and drops out, which is why we pack deep voids first and get the depth right.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Draughts and rain around sash boxes
- Mastic dropping out of the joint
- Gaps where the frame meets the masonry
- Mastic round period door frames that has failed
Rented homes near Andover station change hands often, and any sash windows need sound mastic to keep draughts and rain out.

What sand mastic looks like in Foxcotte
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you look after a building such as Harrow Way Community School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. In the older streets around St Thomas, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Questions from Foxcotte
Do you cover Foxcotte for sand mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Foxcotte is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Do you cover smaller places like Foxcotte?
Yes, Foxcotte is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can old silicone round a sash window be swapped for sand mastic?
In most cases. We remove the silicone and clean the joint before the sand mastic goes in.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Why deal with it now?
Not every filler suits an old window surround. Sand mastic is the like-for-like choice, which can matter on listed and conservation-area homes. In a small place like Foxcotte, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
