Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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.

Stoke Poges homes and the weather
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Windsor Castle (about 4.3 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Stoke Poges has older buildings as well as new. 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.
If you let a flat or house near Slough station, older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out. For an older house near a landmark such as St Andrew's Church Centre, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.
