What the job involves on each surface

Composite doors

Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, and the joint around it is sealed like a window. We match the colour to the frame.

Timber windows & doors

Timber moves with moisture as well as heat, so the joint must stay flexible. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.

How we handle window mastic in Addiscombe

The new joint does not have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. Typical jobs include damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain and draughts coming in around windows and doors, on timber windows & doors, patio & French doors and composite doors.

London has a lot of flats and conversions, where windows are often on upper floors. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Should I try it myself first?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.

Quotes for window mastic in Addiscombe

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • The number and length of the joints
  • The type of sealant required

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

Asking for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • The rough size of the job
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • The problem you’ve noticed

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.

How it works

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are and we leave things clean and tidy. In Addiscombe, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.

  1. We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
  2. We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
  3. We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
  4. We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
  5. Finally we tidy up and check each joint.

How to prepare

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

What happens if it’s left?

Choosing the product is half the job. Interior caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t made for exterior frame joints. A low-modulus exterior sealant keeps its stretch through hot and cold weather. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Addiscombe, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Addiscombe homes and the weather

With historic houses such as Addington Palace (about 2 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Addiscombe as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

For an older house near a landmark such as St Mildred's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. As a London address, Addiscombe can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Oasis Academy Shirley Park, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
