When to call us in Well Street
Some old mastic was never deep enough. A thin layer doesn’t hold well, which is why we pack deep voids first and get the depth right.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Mastic dropping out of the joint
- Open joints round the window box
- A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look
- Mastic worn away on windows facing the weather
If you look after a building such as The Malling School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is
- What preparation is included
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether you can choose the colour
Why act early in Well Street
A silicone bead can be quicker, but on period stone or brick it often looks out of place. Sand mastic suits the building and blends with the stone or brick. Around Well Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Windows and doors in Well Street
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Old Soar Manor (about 4.9 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Well Street 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 windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Rented homes near East Malling station change hands often, and cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.
