Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Newyears Green

We work across Newyears Green renewing sand mastic on sash windows and doors. Each joint is raked out, prepared and pointed by hand for a neat, traditional finish. If you have cracked mastic round a front door frame and tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint, we can put it right, on brick reveals, sash and case windows and stone surrounds alike.

Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Newyears Green is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Newyears Green homes and the weather

With historic houses such as Ickenham Hall (about 1.5 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Newyears Green 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 is traditional sand mastic. 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.

Historic houses such as Ickenham Hall, about 1.5 miles south-east, show how far back building around Newyears Green goes. Rented homes near West Ruislip station change hands often, and cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.

When it is not the sealant

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • Sashes that rattle, stick or will not open
  • Masonry that needs repairing
  • Decisions on consent for listed homes

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

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

Landlord and commercial work in Newyears Green

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
  • Do not paint over the new mastic
  • Go gently near the mastic when preparing windows
  • Get any rot dealt with first

Look at the mastic when you look over the windows. Catching cracks early keeps repairs small.

Good mastic helps keep the frame dry. Failed mastic lets water reach the timber, which can lead to rot.

How much does sand mastic cost in Newyears Green?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.

Can you replace silicone on a period window with sand mastic?

Often, yes. Once the silicone is out and the joint prepared we point it with sand mastic.

Is sand mastic better than silicone for my windows?

We’ll talk it through with you. Period homes often look best with sand mastic and newer frames suit modern sealant.

What happens on the day

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere as small as Newyears Green, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We look at the surrounds with you and agree the joints to renew.
  2. We remove the old, loose mastic.
  3. We pack any deep voids first.
  4. We apply the mastic by hand and shape it.
  5. The surface is finished to suit the stone or brick.

Advice

Why act early in Newyears Green

An open joint round the frame lets weather in. Left, water can reach the timber and the wall so renewing it early protects the window. Around Newyears Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

Why us?

  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Tidy, careful work

Quotes for sand mastic in Newyears Green

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The size of the job
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Asking for a quote

When you contact us, it’s useful to know:

  • A few pictures by email, if you can

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Whether it has been sealed before
