Can I do it myself?
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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How we handle sand mastic in Whiteley Village
Across Whiteley Village, we renew sand mastic around sash and case windows. Each joint is raked out, prepared and pointed by hand for a neat, traditional finish. We work on stone surrounds, brick reveals and period & listed homes, and common reasons people get in touch are cement or filler used on old window joints that has cracked and gaps between timber frames and stone or brick.
Homes in small places like Whiteley Village often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Windows and doors in Whiteley Village
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like The Homewood (about 1.8 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Whiteley Village 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 Notre Dame Senior School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Weybridge station change hands often, and cracked sand mastic around sash windows lets in the draughts tenants complain about.

Signs you need sand mastic in Whiteley Village
Rain on the window surround works into any crack and loosens it further. Windows facing the weather tend to go first.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look
- Old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out
- Gaps round a timber door in stone or brick
- Wind and rain getting in round a sash window
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mark, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints. Somewhere as small as Whiteley Village, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we look at the surrounds with you and agree what needs doing.
- The loose and crumbling mastic is raked out and the joint cleaned.
- Deep voids are packed so the mastic is the right thickness.
- The mastic is mixed, pressed into the joint by hand and shaped.
- The mastic is finished to sit tidily against the stone or brick.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

How the job changes by surface
Stone surrounds
We take care not to mark the stone while raking out the old mastic.
Timber door frames
Round a period front door, sand mastic gives the right look.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t paint over the new mastic
- Look over the window mastic once a year
- Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
- Avoid patching sand mastic with silicone
Look at the mastic when you look over the windows. Catching cracks early keeps repairs small.
It’s best to renew mastic before painting the windows. Paint over cracked mastic only covers it up.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
