About our sand mastic in Stonesfield
A silicone bead around a sash window can look out of place and isn’t always the right material. Sand mastic gives a finish that matches the age of the house and we can swap the silicone for it. We work on brick reveals, period & listed homes and stone surrounds, and the jobs we see most are crumbling sand mastic round a window and patchy fillers round a sash window.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Stonesfield is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Stonesfield and across Oxfordshire.

What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows. For a village or hamlet like Stonesfield, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we look at the surrounds with you and agree what needs doing.
- We rake out the old mastic and clean the joint.
- Large voids are packed out first, so the mastic is not too thick.
- The mastic is mixed, pressed into the joint by hand and shaped.
- We dress the surface so it sits neatly against the masonry.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Stonesfield homes and the weather
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Blenheim Palace (about 3 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Stonesfield 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 James the Great, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Stonesfield School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

What else we do in Stonesfield
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
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.
Landlord and commercial work in Stonesfield
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Stonesfield and across Oxfordshire. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured for the work.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Surface by surface
Sash and case windows
Most of our sand mastic work is on sash windows. We renew the mastic round each box.
Stone surrounds
Stone openings are rarely perfectly straight, so the gap isn’t the same all the way round. Sand mastic is shaped by hand to suit.
