Why it’s worth doing now in Nutley
Silicone might seem the quicker option, but it can look wrong on a period surround. Sand mastic suits the building and blends with the stone or brick. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Nutley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Sand mastic in Nutley, done properly
Fresh sand mastic forms a skin quite soon but full hardening takes longer. Traditionally, sand mastic is left unpainted and we will advise if you’re redecorating. Common call-outs are for crumbling sand mastic round a window and mastic round period door frames that has failed, on sash and case windows, stone surrounds and brick reveals.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Nutley is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Common problems we fix in Nutley
Paint, silicone or cement used over old mastic causes problems. They don’t suit the joint and we normally remove them.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Crumbling sand mastic round a window
- Cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked
- Modern sealant on a period surround
- Gaps between timber frames and stone or brick
In the older streets around St James the Less, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.
Before booking anyone
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What product goes in the joint
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether you can choose the colour
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Get any rot dealt with first
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
- Find out about consent before window work on a listed home
- Leave the new mastic unpainted
Keep gutters and sills clear so water runs away from the surround. Water sitting against the mastic shortens its life.
Good mastic helps keep the frame dry. Failed mastic lets water reach the timber and timber that stays wet can rot.
