Sand Mastic in Pyrford
Traditional burnt sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors in stone and brick for homes and businesses in Pyrford and across Surrey. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Mastic that needs renewing before redecorating
- Patchy fillers round a sash window
- Old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out
Why it’s worth doing now in Pyrford
Not every draught comes from the sashes themselves. Open mastic joints round the box can let air in and new mastic seals them. Around Pyrford, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
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. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Sand mastic in Pyrford
Sand mastic has long been used to fill the joint between timber frames and masonry. It’s a mix of sand and a linseed-oil-based binder, applied by hand. On older homes, it suits the building far better than silicone. We work on brick reveals, sash and case windows and tenement windows, and common reasons people get in touch are old cement repairs round a window that have failed and old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out.
In smaller places like Pyrford, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. The right sealant depends on the frame and on what it sits in.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What we are called out for in Pyrford
Age is the main cause. Even well-laid mastic needs renewing in time, depending on exposure and upkeep.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps round a timber door in stone or brick
- Gaps where the frame meets the masonry
- Wind and rain getting in round a sash window
- Window mastic to renew ahead of painting
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of the Good Shepherd, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Are they insured?
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- Crumbling stone or brickwork round the window
- Planning or listed building consent (your local planning authority decides)
- Rotten sashes, sills or window boxes (a joiner’s job)
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Pyrford homes and the weather
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Byfleet Manor (about 2.2 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Pyrford 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 is traditional sand mastic.
For landlords with property near West Byfleet station, cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about. Schools such as Pyrford Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

What do you need from me for a quote?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
When will the new mastic be hard?
It takes a while. The skin forms first, and the full set comes later and we will give you an idea for your job.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
