Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Hatchet Green
We renew sand mastic around sash windows and doors in stone and brick. The old mastic is raked out, the joint is prepared and new mastic is shaped by hand. If you are dealing with patchy fillers round a sash window and gaps between timber frames and stone or brick, we can put it right.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Hatchet Green is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Yes, Hatchet Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Can you replace silicone on a period window with sand mastic?
In most cases. The silicone is cut out and the joint cleaned, then point it with sand mastic.
How long does sand mastic take to go off?
It forms a skin fairly soon and it hardens fully over a longer time. Timing depends on the weather and the joint.
Can I paint the new mastic?
Traditional guidance is not to paint over sand mastic. If you are redecorating the window, ask us first and we will talk you through it.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Windows and doors in Hatchet Green
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Breamore House (about 2.6 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Hatchet Green as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
If you look after a building such as Hale Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints. Somewhere as small as Hatchet Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check each window surround and the condition of the joint.
- The joint is raked out and cleaned.
- We fill deep gaps so the new mastic isn’t too thick.
- We point the joint with sand mastic by hand.
- The finish is dressed neatly.
Getting ready for the visit

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hatchet Green
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Why act early in Hatchet Green
Silicone might seem the quicker option, but on period stone or brick it often looks out of place. Sand mastic is the traditional material and finishes neatly against the masonry. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hatchet Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Avoid heavy scraping on the mastic joint
- Ask us before painting near the mastic
- Keep modern sealant off the mastic
- Get any rot dealt with first
Make sure water drains away from the window surround. Water sitting against the mastic shortens its life.
Good mastic helps keep the frame dry. Once it fails, water can sit against the timber and timber that stays wet can rot.
Signs you need sand mastic in Hatchet Green
Paint, silicone or cement used over old mastic causes problems. They do not suit the joint and we normally remove them.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Failed mastic on an exposed elevation
- Patchy fillers round a sash window
- Gaps round a timber door in stone or brick
- Mastic that needs renewing before redecorating
Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
