Sash and case windows
On a sash window, the mastic joint shows on the outside so we finish it carefully.
Stone surrounds
The stone is treated with care when the old mastic comes out.
How we handle sand mastic in Nether Winchendon
Sand mastic skins over fairly quickly, but it takes longer to harden fully. Traditionally, sand mastic is left unpainted, so ask us before you decorate. We work on stone surrounds, timber door frames and tenement windows, and the jobs we see most are window mastic to renew ahead of painting and failed mastic on an exposed elevation.
Around Nether Winchendon, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

What happens if it’s left?
New sash windows are a major, costly change and on a listed home, consent may be needed. If the frames are sound, renewing the mastic deals with gaps and draughts at the surround. Around Nether Winchendon, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

What we’re called out for in Nether Winchendon
Timber swells and shrinks with the weather. The movement cracks the mastic over time.
Look out for these signs:
- A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look
- Wind and rain getting in round a sash window
- Old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out
- Failed mastic on an exposed elevation
In the older streets around Parish Church of St Nicholas, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What sand mastic looks like in Nether Winchendon
With historic houses such as Waddesdon Manor (about 2.5 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Nether Winchendon as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For landlords with property near Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out. Schools such as Cuddington and Dinton CofE School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Advice
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Plan mastic work ahead of painting
- Have rotten timber repaired before new mastic goes in
- Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
- Inspect the joints round the windows every year or so
Look at the mastic when you look over the windows. Small cracks are easier to deal with early.
It’s best to renew mastic before painting the windows. Paint over cracked mastic only covers it up.

We do not publish a price list. The quote depends on:
