To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Decayed frames that need repair
  • Planning or listed building consent (your local planning authority decides)

What happens if it’s left?

New mastic over crumbling mastic will not hold. Raking out and preparing the joint gives it a sound base so the new mastic stays put. Older cottages and farmhouses around Sepham Heath can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

What sand mastic looks like in Sepham Heath

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Lullingstone Castle (about 3.1 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Sepham Heath has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.

In the older streets around Otford Lane Mission Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you look after a building such as Halstead Community Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
