Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Weston
A silicone bead around a sash window can look out of place and doesn’t suit the building. Sand mastic is the traditional choice, and we can replace one with the other. If you have mastic round period door frames that has failed and silicone on a period window that looks wrong, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Weston, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Common questions in Weston
Will you come out to Weston?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Petersfield station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
What does sand mastic cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
What guarantee comes with the work?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Can sand mastic be painted?
Traditional guidance is not to paint over sand mastic. Ask us before you decorate around it and we will advise.
Can old silicone round a sash window be swapped for sand mastic?
Yes, we do this often. All the old silicone is removed first so the mastic can sit properly.

We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check each window surround and the condition of the joint.

Do you need sand mastic in Weston?
Paint, silicone or cement used over old mastic causes problems. They don’t suit the joint and we normally remove them.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out
- Open joints round the window box
- Modern sealant on a period surround
- Old cement repairs round a window that have failed
Uppark, about 4 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Weston.
What your quote should include
- Are they insured?
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Is VAT in the price?
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Frames and glazing around Weston
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Uppark (about 4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Weston has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Schools such as Buriton Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Petersfield station, older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out.

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll explain what’s involved and give you a clear quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Clear gutters so water doesn’t pour onto the windows
- Ask a joiner to look at soft timber first
- Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed
- Sort the mastic before the decorators arrive
When preparing windows for paint, take care around the mastic. Hard scraping can loosen it.
Gaps round a sash box let in draughts and rain. Left, the gap tends to get bigger as more mastic falls out.
