Sand mastic in Spanish Green, done properly
A silicone bead around a sash window can look out of place and is not always the right material. Sand mastic is the traditional choice and we can swap the silicone for it. We work on stone surrounds, sash and case windows and period & listed homes, and people most often call us about mastic dropping out of the joint and patchy fillers round a sash window.
In a village or hamlet like Spanish Green, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. Somewhere as small as Spanish Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Windows and doors in Spanish Green
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House (about 1.8 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Spanish Green as well as newer homes. 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 Church of St Mary the Blessed Virgin, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Rented homes near Bramley (Hants) station change hands often, and cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.

What we’re called out for in Spanish Green
Timber frames move with the seasons. The movement cracks the mastic over time.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps between timber frames and stone or brick
- Draughts and rain around sash boxes
- Mastic worn away on windows facing the weather
- Old cement repairs round a window that have failed
If you look after a building such as Daneshill School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Leave it or put it right?
If you are redecorating, renew the mastic first. Painting over failed mastic does not seal it, and the new mastic is traditionally left unpainted. Around Spanish Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What sealant work cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Crumbling stone or brickwork round the window
- Decisions on consent for listed homes
- Putty and glazing repairs
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Timber door frames
- Sash and case windows
- Period & listed homes
- Brick reveals
- Stone surrounds
- Tenement windows
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Find out about consent before window work on a listed home
- Check the mastic when you check the paintwork
- Take care around the mastic when scraping paint
- Clear gutters so water does not pour onto the windows
Keep paint scrapers and sanders off the mastic when redecorating. Hard scraping can loosen it.
It’s best to renew mastic before painting the windows. Painting over failed mastic hides the problem for a while.

How long does the job take?

What does sand mastic cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
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.
