How we handle sand mastic in Walton Court
Burnt sand mastic is a traditional material blends with stone and brick surrounds. It’s a good fit for period properties where a modern sealant bead would stand out. If you have mastic dropping out of the joint and patchy fillers round a sash window, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Walton Court, conservatories, garden rooms and patio doors are often part of the house. Their glazing joints and frame seals are as much a part of the job as the windows.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

What sealant work cannot fix
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Decisions on consent for listed homes
- Sashes that need overhauling
- Masonry that needs repairing
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Tenement windows
- Brick reveals
- Sash and case windows
- Timber door frames
- Stone surrounds
- Period & listed homes
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What sand mastic looks like in Walton Court
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.
If you live in an older home near Church of the Good Shepherd, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ashmead Combined School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For landlords with property near Aylesbury station, cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
- Do not paint over the new mastic
- Find out about consent before window work on a listed home
- Avoid heavy scraping on the mastic joint
Avoid painting over the new mastic, as traditional guidance advises. If you’re redecorating, ask us first.
Renewing mastic before redecorating saves doing it twice. Painting over failed mastic hides the problem for a while.

Common questions in Walton Court
Will you come out to Walton Court?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Aylesbury station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
What is sand mastic?
It’s sand mixed with a linseed-oil-based binder, used between timber frames and stone or brick.
How long does the job take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job, sand mastic included.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Why act early in Walton Court
A silicone bead can be quicker, but on period stone or brick it often looks out of place. Sand mastic suits the building and finishes neatly against the masonry. Homes in smaller places like Walton Court can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
