Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Stalisfield
Traditional burnt sand mastic that sits naturally against stone and brick. It’s a good fit for period properties where a modern sealant bead would stand out. We are often asked to deal with cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked and mastic that needs renewing before redecorating, across stone surrounds, sash and case windows and period & listed homes.
Around Stalisfield, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Why act early in Stalisfield
Not every draught comes from the sashes themselves. Gaps between the frame and the wall can be just as bad and new mastic seals them. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stalisfield can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Advice
Sand mastic in Stalisfield: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Belmont House and Gardens (about 2.6 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Stalisfield 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
