Sand mastic in Hinxhill Park, done properly
If your home is listed or in a conservation area, check with your local planning authority if consent is needed before window work. Like-for-like sand mastic is often the preferred finish. We work on tenement windows, period & listed homes and brick reveals, and people most often call us about tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint and mastic dropping out of the joint.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Hinxhill Park is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:
- Timber that has rotted
- Sash cords, weights and draught-proofing of the sashes
- Decisions on consent for listed homes
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we seal
- Brick reveals
- Tenement windows
- Sash and case windows
- Stone surrounds
- Period & listed homes
- Timber door frames
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Take care around the mastic when scraping paint
- Have rotten timber repaired before new mastic goes in
- Sort the mastic before the decorators arrive
- Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
Keep gutters and sills clear so water runs away from the surround. Water sitting against the mastic shortens its life.
Sound mastic protects the frame. Failed mastic lets water reach the timber and timber that stays wet can rot.

What sand mastic looks like in Hinxhill Park
Historic houses like Godinton House (about 3.9 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Hinxhill Park has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. If you let a flat or house near Ashford International station, older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out.

How the job changes by surface
Brick reveals
Sand mastic is also used where timber frames meet brick. It gives a traditional finish.
Stone surrounds
Stone openings are rarely perfectly straight, so the gap is not the same all the way round. We shape it by hand to follow the stone.
The process
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a single window, longer for several. In a small place like Hinxhill Park, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Each surround is checked first.
- We rake out the old mastic and clean the joint.
- Large voids are packed out.
- New sand mastic is applied and shaped by hand.
- The finish is dressed neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
