Hinxhill homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Godinton House (about 4.3 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Hinxhill as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Managing a site like Brook Community Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. Letting a property close to Ashford International station? Then any sash windows need sound mastic to keep draughts and rain out.

How we handle sand mastic in Hinxhill
For a listed home or one in a conservation area, ask your local planning authority whether consent is needed for work to windows. Sand mastic is often favoured as a like-for-like material. We work on brick reveals, tenement windows and stone surrounds, and people most often call us about mastic worn away on windows facing the weather and mastic that needs renewing before redecorating.
Somewhere as small as Hinxhill, 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.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we have gone.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Landlord and commercial work in Hinxhill
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Sash and case windows
The box of a sash and case window sits in the stone or brick opening. Sand mastic seals the joint round it.
Tenement and terrace windows
Where a building is shared, window work may involve neighbours, so check who is responsible first.
When it isn’t the sealant
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Crumbling stone or brickwork round the window
- Sashes that rattle, stick or won’t open
- Rotten sashes, sills or window boxes (a joiner’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows.

- We look at the surrounds with you and agree the joints to renew.
- We remove the old, loose mastic.
- We pack any deep voids first.
- The sand mastic is mixed and pressed into the joint by hand.
- We dress the finish so it sits neatly against the masonry.

FAQs for Hinxhill
Will you come out to Hinxhill?
Yes, Hinxhill 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.
Is Hinxhill in your area for sand mastic?
Yes, Hinxhill is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can old silicone round a sash window be swapped for sand mastic?
Yes, we do this often. All the old silicone is removed first so the mastic can sit properly.
Should I check with the council before work on a listed or conservation-area home?
Yes, it’s worth checking. Ask your local planning authority whether consent is needed for work on a listed home or in a conservation area.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What’s sand mastic made of?
Sand mastic is a traditional material for pointing round windows and doors. It combines sand with a linseed-oil-based binder.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Why deal with it now?
Cement-based fillers and modern sealants don’t always suit a period surround. Sand mastic is the like-for-like choice and that can be important for listed homes. Around Hinxhill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
