Can I do it myself?

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Sand mastic in Hunton, done properly

We work across Hunton renewing sand mastic on sash windows and doors. Every joint is cleaned out and filled by hand for a neat, traditional finish. If you have window mastic to renew ahead of painting and gaps between timber frames and stone or brick, we can help, on sash and case windows, timber door frames and brick reveals alike.

Homes in small places like Hunton often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Hunton

Sand mastic slowly weathers. It dries out, cracks and loses its grip on the stone or timber.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Mastic worn away on windows facing the weather
  • Cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked
  • Crumbling sand mastic round a window
  • Window mastic to renew ahead of painting

Homes close to Church of St James include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Surface by surface

Timber door frames

A neat sand mastic joint round a front door suits a period home.

Stone surrounds

The stone is treated with care when the old mastic comes out.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
  • Take care around the mastic when scraping paint
  • Plan mastic work ahead of painting
  • Make sure water runs off the sill

Leave the new mastic unpainted, which is the traditional advice. Ask us before any decorating around it.

An open joint round the box lets weather through. The longer it’s left, the more the joint opens as more mastic falls out.

Honest limits

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:

  • Masonry that needs repairing
  • Rotten sashes, sills or window boxes (a joiner’s job)
  • Cracked or broken glass

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we seal

  • Sash and case windows
  • Tenement windows
  • Brick reveals
  • Timber door frames
  • Period & listed homes
  • Stone surrounds

What affects the quote in Hunton

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

  • The size of the job
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Whether the work is at height

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What we need to know

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Where the property is
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved and send you a clear quote.

Hunton: your questions answered

Can you do sand mastic in Hunton?

I let a flat near Micheldever station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.

How long will you be here?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints. Larger jobs naturally take longer.

What does sand mastic cost?

We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before work begins.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.

Should I check with the council before work on a listed or conservation-area home?

Checking first is sensible. Ask your local planning authority whether consent is needed for listed or conservation-area properties.

How long does sand mastic take to harden?

It skins over fairly quickly but takes longer to harden fully. We’ll explain what to expect before we leave.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.

What we do, step by step

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Hunton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We check each window surround and the condition of the joint.
  2. We rake out the old mastic and clean the joint.
  3. We fill deep gaps so the new mastic isn’t too thick.
  4. We point the joint with sand mastic by hand.
  5. We finish the mastic to a tidy line.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
