- Draughty sash windows at the surround

If you look after a building such as Parkside School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

About our sand mastic in Stoke D'Abernon
Burnt sand mastic is a traditional material that sits naturally against stone and brick. It’s a good fit for period properties, where modern sealant can look out of place. We’re often asked to deal with open joints round the window box and modern sealant on a period surround, on sash and case windows, stone surrounds and tenement windows.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Stoke D'Abernon is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What exactly is sand mastic?
It’s a mix of sand and a linseed-oil-based binder. It’s applied by hand and shaped to suit the surround.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. More than one area can be quoted together.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Go gently near the mastic when preparing windows
- Sort the mastic before the decorators arrive
- Ask a joiner to look at soft timber first
- Keep sills and gutters clear so water drains away
Make sure water drains away from the window surround. Constant wetting wears the mastic faster.
Once mastic starts to crumble, rain gets in. It can soak into the frame and the surrounding masonry so early renewal protects both.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Why act early in Stoke D'Abernon
Silicone might seem the quicker option, but on period stone or brick it often looks out of place. Sand mastic is the traditional material and finishes neatly against the masonry. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Stoke D'Abernon, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We check the window surrounds and agree which joints need renewing.
- Old, loose mastic is raked out and the joint cleaned.

What sand mastic looks like in Stoke D'Abernon
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. With historic houses such as The Homewood (about 2 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Stoke D'Abernon as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For landlords with property near Cobham & Stoke Dabernon station, cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about. 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.
