Do you need sand mastic in Pitland Street?
Some old mastic was never deep enough. Mastic that is too thin cracks and drops out, which is why we pack deep voids first and get the depth right.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look
- Tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint
- Mastic dropping out of the joint
- Cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Belmont Prep School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
What your quote should include

Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Pitland Street
Sand mastic does not last for ever, leaving gaps round the window. Renewing it closes the gap so the surround looks right again. Common call-outs are for gaps round a timber door in stone or brick and cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked, on timber door frames, tenement windows and period & listed homes.
Around Pitland Street, 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.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why it’s worth doing now in Pitland Street
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 Pitland Street, 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 a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before we start.

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
