How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Leave the new mastic unpainted
- Get any rot dealt with first
- Find out about consent before window work on a listed home
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
Look at the mastic when you look over the windows. Catching cracks early keeps repairs small.
An open joint round the box lets weather through. Left, the gap tends to get bigger.
Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Little Kimble
We renew sand mastic around sash windows and doors in stone and brick. Out comes the old, loose mastic, the joint is prepared and new mastic is shaped by hand. We work on timber door frames, period & listed homes and stone surrounds, and people most often call us about tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint and failed mastic on an exposed elevation.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Little Kimble is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Why act early in Little Kimble
Gaps round a sash window let in rain and draughts. Water can get to the frame and the masonry, so dealing with it now protects both. In a small place like Little Kimble, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why Little Kimble clients choose us
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- We leave the area clean and tidy
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Sash and case windows
On a sash window, the mastic joint shows on the outside so we finish it carefully.
Tenement and terrace windows
Where a building is shared, window work may involve neighbours, so check who is responsible first.
Sand mastic in Little Kimble: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
In the older streets around Church of All Saints, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. For landlords with property near Little Kimble station, older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Great Kimble Church of England School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

How we quote for sand mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Any mould that needs treating
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the property is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Roughly how big the job is
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Somewhere as small as Little Kimble, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check the window surrounds and agree which joints need renewing.
- Old, loose mastic is raked out and the joint cleaned.
- We pack any deep gaps so the mastic sits at the right depth.
- The mastic is mixed, pressed into the joint by hand and shaped.
- The mastic is finished to sit tidily against the stone or brick.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
