Kingsley Green Sand Mastic
Our applicators work in Kingsley Green on traditional burnt sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors in stone and brick. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a one-year guarantee.
- Cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked
- Wind and rain getting in round a sash window
- Tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
- Clear gutters so water does not pour onto the windows
- Do not run silicone over sand mastic
- Go gently near the mastic when preparing windows
Don’t touch or press the mastic while it hardens. It forms a skin fairly soon, but takes longer to harden fully.
Renewing mastic before redecorating saves doing it twice. Painting over failed mastic hides the problem for a while.
How we handle sand mastic in Kingsley Green
We work across Kingsley Green renewing sand mastic on sash windows and doors. Each joint is raked out, prepared and pointed by hand for a neat, traditional finish. Common call-outs are for wind and rain getting in round a sash window and failed mastic on an exposed elevation, on period & listed homes, tenement windows and sash and case windows.
Somewhere as small as Kingsley Green, 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.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Questions from Kingsley Green
Is Kingsley Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Haslemere station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is it possible to take out silicone and use sand mastic instead?
In most cases. The silicone is cut out and the joint cleaned before the sand mastic goes in.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with photos by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Do you guarantee sand mastic work?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job, sand mastic included.
What exactly is sand mastic?
A traditional pointing material made from sand and a linseed-oil-based binder, used between timber frames and stone or brick.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
What sand mastic looks like in Kingsley Green
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Fernhurst Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Margaret, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Advice
When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Sashes that need overhauling
- Planning or listed building consent (your local planning authority decides)
- Damaged stone surrounds
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Timber door frames
- Brick reveals
- Tenement windows
- Period & listed homes
- Sash and case windows
- Stone surrounds
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How the job changes by surface
Tenement and terrace windows
Tenements and terraces often have many sash windows with ageing mastic. We work on single windows or whole elevations.
Sash and case windows
Sash windows are where we do most sand mastic work. Each joint round the box is raked out and renewed.
Signs you need sand mastic in Kingsley Green
Sand mastic slowly weathers. It dries out, cracks and loses its grip on the stone or timber.
Look out for these signs:
- Mastic round period door frames that has failed
- A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look
- Mastic that needs renewing before redecorating
- Crumbling sand mastic round a window
Rented homes near Haslemere station change hands often, and cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.

- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
