About our sand mastic in Rodmersham Green
We work across Rodmersham Green renewing sand mastic on sash windows and doors. Each joint is raked out, prepared and pointed by hand, finished to suit the masonry. Typical jobs include old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out and mastic worn away on windows facing the weather, on stone surrounds, brick reveals and timber door frames.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Rodmersham Green is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

Surface by surface
Period and listed homes
On a listed home or in a conservation area, the right material matters. Sand mastic is often the preferred finish.
Brick reveals
We rake out the old mastic and pack deep voids before the new mastic goes in.
Why deal with it now?
An open joint round the frame lets weather in. Left, water can reach the timber and the wall, so dealing with it now protects both. Around Rodmersham Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Joints and surfaces we work on
- Tenement windows
- Timber door frames
- Stone surrounds
- Period & listed homes
- Brick reveals
- Sash and case windows
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Go gently near the mastic when preparing windows
- Get any rot dealt with first
- Make sure water runs off the sill
- Avoid patching sand mastic with silicone
Keep paint scrapers and sanders off the mastic when redecorating. It can be damaged by heavy scraping.
Once mastic starts to crumble, rain gets in. It can soak into the frame and the surrounding masonry, so renewing it early is worth it.
What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. Somewhere as small as Rodmersham Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we agree which joints need doing.
- We remove the old, loose mastic.
- We pack any deep voids first.
- We apply the mastic by hand and shape it.
- The surface is finished to suit the stone or brick.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
