Sand mastic in Sittingbourne: local notes

Sittingbourne is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on the mastic around older windows and doors, especially on the side facing the sea. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Trinity, 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 Borden Grammar School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Rented homes near Sittingbourne station change hands often, and older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out.

Should I try it myself first?

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.

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.
