Surface by surface

Timber door frames

Sand mastic is used round timber door frames too. The method is the same as for windows.

Tenement and terrace windows

Upper-floor windows need access planning. Let us know the floor and we will confirm access.

Should I try it myself first?

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.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

When to call us in Weavers Down

Timber swells and shrinks with the weather. That movement opens up the mastic joint little by little.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked
  • Failed mastic on an exposed elevation
  • Wind and rain getting in round a sash window
  • Gaps round a timber door in stone or brick

If you look after a building such as Liphook Church of England Controlled Junior School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • The length of the guarantee
  • How the colour is chosen

For a village or hamlet like Weavers Down, 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.

  1. We look at the surrounds with you and agree the joints to renew.
  2. We remove the old, loose mastic.
  3. We pack any deep voids first.
  4. We apply the mastic by hand and shape it.
  5. The surface is finished to suit the stone or brick.
