About our sand mastic in Green Hailey
Sand mastic has long been used to fill the joint between timber frames and masonry. It’s made from sand and a linseed-oil-based binder, applied by hand. On older homes, it suits the building far better than silicone. We work on sash and case windows, timber door frames and period & listed homes, and common reasons people get in touch are wind and rain getting in round a sash window and old cement repairs round a window that have failed.
Homes in small places like Green Hailey often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Green Hailey and everywhere else we cover.

For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Crumbling stone or brickwork round the window
- Sashes that need overhauling
- Decayed frames that need repair
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Windows and doors in Green Hailey
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.
In the older streets around Church of St Dunstan, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. If you look after a building such as Monks Risborough CofE Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

When to call us in Green Hailey
Rain on the window surround works into any crack and pushes it out. Windows facing the weather tend to go first.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Modern sealant on a period surround
- Mastic worn away on windows facing the weather
- Cracked mastic round a front door frame
- Gaps where the frame meets the masonry
Letting a property close to Monks Risborough station? Then any sash windows need sound mastic to keep draughts and rain out.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Inspect the joints round the windows every year or so
- Get any rot dealt with first
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
- Keep modern sealant off the mastic
Keep gutters and sills clear so water runs away from the surround. Constant wetting wears the mastic faster.
Small cracks are a sign the mastic is ageing. It’s easier to renew it before it drops out.
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Green Hailey: your questions answered
I let a flat near Monks Risborough station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you do sand mastic in Green Hailey?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Green Hailey is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
When will the new mastic be hard?
It takes a while. The skin forms first, and the full set comes later and we’ll give you an idea for your job.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it will not last. 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.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Is the work guaranteed?
You get our 12-month guarantee on every job.
