Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
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 fails, we can still redo it.
What we’re called out for in Rogate
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.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out
- Cracked mastic round a front door frame
- Patchy fillers round a sash window
- Modern sealant on a period surround
Letting a property close to Liss station? Then older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out.

Landlord and commercial work in Rogate
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What affects the cost of sand mastic
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The type of sealant required
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any mould that needs treating
- Working hours on commercial sites
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
The process
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Rogate needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we agree which joints need doing.
- We remove the old, loose mastic.
- We pack any deep voids first.
- The sand mastic is mixed and pressed into the joint by hand.
- We dress the finish so it sits neatly against the masonry.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any water getting in

Advice
Common questions in Rogate
Is Rogate within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Liss station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you guarantee sand mastic work?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, sand mastic included.
Should I use sand mastic or silicone?
That depends on your windows. Period windows in stone or brick generally suit sand mastic, while modern frames normally get a flexible sealant.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Can I paint the new mastic?
Traditional guidance is not to paint over sand mastic. If you’re redecorating the window, ask us first and we will advise.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Leave it or put it right?
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. In a small place like Rogate, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
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.

What sand mastic looks like in Rogate
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Uppark (about 4.1 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Rogate as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Schools such as Rogate CofE Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Bartholomew, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
