How we handle sand mastic in Send
Burnt sand mastic is a traditional material blends with stone and brick surrounds. It suits period and listed homes, where modern sealant can look out of place. We work on stone surrounds, sash and case windows and timber door frames, and common reasons people get in touch are draughts and rain around sash boxes and gaps where the frame meets the masonry.
In a smaller place like Send, some walls face open ground and catch the full force of the weather. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.

Frames and glazing around Send
Historic houses like Clandon Park (about 2.9 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Send has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Schools such as Send CofE Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you let a flat or house near Clandon station, cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.

How the job changes by surface
Sash and case windows
The box of a sash and case window sits in the stone or brick opening. Sand mastic seals the joint round it.
Brick reveals
We rake out the old mastic and pack deep voids before the new mastic goes in.
Do you need sand mastic in Send?
Rain on the window surround works into any crack and pushes it out. Windows facing the weather tend to go first.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Failed mastic on an exposed elevation
- Mastic round period door frames that has failed
- Draughty sash windows at the surround
- Silicone on a period window that looks wrong
If you live in an older home near St William of York, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

How we quote for sand mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- When we can work, for business premises
- The number and length of the joints
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If someone has resealed it before
- Roughly how big the job is
For a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We’ll send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Why deal with it now?
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 Send, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Send
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
Can I do it myself?
If you’re 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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

FAQs for Send
Is Send within the area you cover?
Yes. Send is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Clandon station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before any work starts.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work usually takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. For a job in Send, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- Each surround is checked first.
- We rake out the old mastic and clean the joint.
- We fill deep gaps so the new mastic isn’t too thick.
- New sand mastic is applied and shaped by hand.
- The finish is dressed neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
