Sand mastic in Uffington
We work across Uffington renewing sand mastic on sash windows and doors. Each joint is raked out, prepared and pointed by hand, finished to suit the masonry. If you are dealing with silicone on a period window that looks wrong and mastic worn away on windows facing the weather, we can help.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Uffington is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

How the job changes by surface
Stone surrounds
Old stone surrounds are often uneven, so the joint varies in width. We shape it by hand to follow the stone.
Brick reveals
An open joint at a brick reveal lets weather in. Renewing the mastic closes it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Uffington
Not every filler suits an old window surround. Sand mastic matches what was there and that can be important for listed homes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Uffington, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
What you get with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- 20+ years of sealant experience

What we do, step by step
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work usually takes a few hours for a single window, longer for several. For a village or hamlet like Uffington, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at the surrounds with you and agree the joints to renew.
- We remove the old, loose mastic.
- We pack any deep voids first.
- We apply the mastic by hand and shape it.
- We dress the finish so it sits neatly against the masonry.

What sand mastic looks like in Uffington
With historic houses such as Ashdown House (about 4.8 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Uffington 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. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Schools such as Uffington Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. In the older streets around Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
