Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Fullwell Cross
Our applicators renew the sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors in stone and brick. Out comes the old, loose mastic, the joint is prepared and new mastic is shaped by hand. We are often asked to deal with modern sealant on a period surround and wind and rain getting in round a sash window, on sash and case windows, tenement windows and timber door frames.
Houses in smaller places like Fullwell Cross can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, so exposed windows and doors face the weather head on. That is hard on the mastic around frames and sills.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Is Fullwell Cross within the area you cover?

It’s sand mixed with a linseed-oil-based binder for the joint between timber frames and masonry.

Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available.
Where do you work from?

What guarantee comes with the work?
You get our 12-month guarantee to all our work.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Do the sealants smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Why act early in Fullwell Cross
Gaps round a sash window let in rain and draughts. Water can get to the frame and the masonry so renewing it early protects the window. Homes in smaller places like Fullwell Cross can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Plan mastic work ahead of painting
- Keep sills and gutters clear so water drains away
- Don’t paint over the new mastic
- Get any rot dealt with first
Avoid sealing over the mastic with silicone. If you see a crack, ask us to take a look before trying a quick fix.
Small cracks are a sign the mastic is ageing. It’s easier to renew it before it drops out.
Fullwell Cross homes and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Valentines Mansion (about 1.8 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Fullwell Cross as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Clore Tikva School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Homes close to St Francis of Assisi include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Rented homes near Seven Kings station change hands often, and any sash windows need sound mastic to keep draughts and rain out.
