DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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 for homes and businesses in Littleton
Our applicators renew the sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors set in stone or brick. Out comes the old, loose mastic, the joint is prepared and new mastic is shaped by hand. Typical jobs include cracked mastic round a front door frame and cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked, across sash and case windows, period & listed homes and tenement windows.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Littleton is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Littleton questions
I let a flat near Shepperton station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Littleton in your area for sand mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Littleton is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Can you replace silicone on a period window with sand mastic?
Yes, it’s a common request. All the old silicone is removed first so the mastic beds in well.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
How we quote for sand mastic
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether the work is at height
- Any mould that needs treating
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The type of property
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Why deal with it now?
An open joint round the frame lets weather in. Water can get to the frame and the masonry, so dealing with it now protects both. Around Littleton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
Why us?
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- A 12-month guarantee on all work

Sand mastic in Littleton: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Botleys Mansion (about 3.7 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Littleton as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Managing a site like Littleton CofE Infant School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary Magdalene, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Common problems we fix in Littleton
Timber frames move with the seasons. The movement cracks the mastic over time.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Gaps round a timber door in stone or brick
- Modern sealant on a period surround
- Old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out
- Patchy fillers round a sash window
For landlords with property near Shepperton station, cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is chosen
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Are they insured?
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
