Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Norleywood
Our applicators renew the sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors in stone and brick. The old mastic is raked out, and new mastic is applied and shaped by hand. We work on stone surrounds, period & listed homes and tenement windows, and people most often call us about weathered mastic on the most exposed windows and gaps round a timber door in stone or brick.
In a village or hamlet like Norleywood, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Norleywood as everywhere else we work.

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Common questions in Norleywood
Do you work for landlords with property near Lymington Pier station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Norleywood?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available.
Where do you work from?
We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
When something else is needed

Joints and surfaces we work on
- Tenement windows
- Stone surrounds
- Brick reveals
- Period & listed homes
- Timber door frames
- Sash and case windows
The process
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints. Somewhere as small as Norleywood, 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.
- Deep voids are packed so the mastic is the right thickness.
- The mastic is mixed, pressed into the joint by hand and shaped.
- The finish is dressed so it sits neatly against the stone or brick.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Sand mastic in Norleywood: local notes
Norleywood is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on the mastic around older windows and doors, especially on the side facing the sea. Historic houses like Beaulieu Palace House (about 3.5 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Norleywood has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as South Baddesley Church of England Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have rotten timber repaired before new mastic goes in
- Sort the mastic before the decorators arrive
- Go gently near the mastic when preparing windows
- Ask us before painting near the mastic
Keep paint scrapers and sanders off the mastic when redecorating. It can be damaged by heavy scraping.
Crumbling mastic lets rain into the joint. That water can reach the timber frame and the wall, so renewing it early is worth it.
What we’re called out for in Norleywood
Some old mastic was never deep enough. A thin layer doesn’t hold well so we make sure the new mastic is the right thickness.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Mastic round period door frames that has failed
- Tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint
- Open joints round the window box
- Silicone on a period window that looks wrong
Rented homes near Lymington Pier station change hands often, and older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out.
