About our sand mastic in South Nutfield
Across South Nutfield, we renew sand mastic around sash and case windows. Each joint is raked out, prepared and pointed by hand for a neat, traditional finish. We’re often asked to deal with failed mastic on an exposed elevation and silicone on a period window that looks wrong, across brick reveals, stone surrounds and period & listed homes.
Somewhere as small as South Nutfield, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The process
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. In a small place like South Nutfield, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check each window surround and the condition of the joint.
- The joint is raked out and cleaned.
- We fill deep gaps so the new mastic isn’t too thick.
- We point the joint with sand mastic by hand.
- The finish is dressed neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Look over the window mastic once a year
- Have rotten timber repaired before new mastic goes in
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
- Do not paint over the new mastic
Leave the new mastic unpainted, as traditional guidance advises. If you’re redecorating, ask us first.
Small cracks are a sign the mastic is ageing. Renewing it then is simpler than waiting until it falls out.
