Sand mastic for Norton Green homes and businesses

Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Norton Green

Fresh sand mastic forms a skin quite soon, but it takes longer to harden fully. Traditionally, sand mastic is left unpainted and we will advise if you are redecorating. If you are dealing with failed mastic on an exposed elevation and old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out, we can help, whatever the surface.

Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Norton Green is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Isle of Wight.

Windows and doors in Norton Green

Norton Green is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on the mastic around older windows and doors, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. 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.

For landlords with property near Lymington Pier station, any sash windows need sound mastic to keep draughts and rain out. For an older house near a landmark such as All Saints' Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Norton Green is about 5 miles south of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Norton Green is covered for sand mastic, old or new, large or small.

What happens on the day

Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. Somewhere as small as Norton Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First we agree which joints need doing.
  2. We remove the old, loose mastic.
  3. Deep gaps are packed so the mastic sits at the right depth.
  4. We apply the mastic by hand and shape it.
  5. The surface is finished to suit the stone or brick.

Getting ready for the visit

Is sand mastic in a coastal place like Norton Green any different?

Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

What information do you need?

Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured.

Can I paint the new mastic?

The usual advice is to leave sand mastic unpainted. Ask us before you decorate around it and we’ll talk you through it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Norton Green

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Ask a joiner to look at soft timber first
  • Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
  • Inspect the joints round the windows every year or so
  • Keep modern sealant off the mastic

Check the mastic when you check the paintwork. Catching cracks early keeps repairs small.

Small cracks are a sign the mastic is ageing. Renewing it then is simpler than waiting until it falls out.

Why it’s worth doing now in Norton Green

If you are redecorating, renew the mastic first. Painting over failed mastic does not seal it, and the new mastic is traditionally left unpainted. Older cottages and farmhouses around Norton Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Common problems we fix in Norton Green

Shallow joints are a common cause. Mastic that’s too thin cracks and drops out so we make sure the new mastic is the right thickness.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Gaps between timber frames and stone or brick
  • Weathered mastic on the most exposed windows
  • Silicone on a period window that looks wrong
  • Old cement repairs round a window that have failed

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as All Saints Church of England Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
