Is Tutts Clump in your area for sand mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Tutts Clump is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Tutts Clump?

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Are you an approved applicator?

Are you fully insured?

How long does sand mastic take to harden?
It skins over fairly quickly but takes longer to harden fully. We’ll tell you what to expect for your job.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Why deal with it now?
Filling over old, loose mastic does not last. We remove the loose material first so the new work lasts. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Tutts Clump, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Leave the new mastic unpainted
- Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
- Ask a joiner to look at soft timber first
- Sort the mastic before the decorators arrive
When preparing windows for paint, take care around the mastic. 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.

Advice
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How the job changes by surface
Stone surrounds
Stone surrounds suit sand mastic well. The finish blends with the masonry.
Timber door frames
Round a period front door, sand mastic gives the right look.
Windows and doors in Tutts Clump
The South East is one of the drier parts 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 Basildon Park (about 4.6 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Tutts Clump 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.
For landlords with property near Aldermaston station, cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about. If you live in an older home near St Peter's Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. If you look after a building such as Bradfield C.E. Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
