How we quote for window mastic

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The size of the job
  • When we can work, for business premises

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll talk you through it.

What we need to know

You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Where the property is
  • How we’d reach the joints

Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job.

Window mastic for homes and businesses in Adstock

Frames and walls do not move together. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. That is why the joint needs a flexible, low-modulus sealant rather than something rigid. We work on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and timber windows & doors, and common reasons people get in touch are mastic that’s falling out in pieces and whistling draughts around closed windows.

Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Adstock is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

FAQs for Adstock

Can you do window mastic in Adstock?

Yes, Adstock is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Will you come out to Adstock?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?

Yes. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the joint suits the frame.

Is the new sealant paintable?

Not if it’s silicone. Tell us your decorating plans and we will pick a sealant to suit.

How long should I leave it?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.

How much does window mastic cost in Adstock?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.

Different surfaces, different methods

Window sills

Masonry sills can have joints where water gets in, and the joint under the frame can let rain run behind. We seal those with a sealant suited to masonry.

Patio & French doors

Heavy door frames can move more than windows. A flexible sealant copes with that.

When to call us in Adstock

Every frame moves through the day. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. A sealant that can’t keep up eventually tears.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
  • A bead that doesn’t match the frame
  • Draughts coming in around windows and doors
  • Leaking joints at the ends of sills

Homes close to Church of St Cecilia include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

Choosing a sealant specialist

The process

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Somewhere as small as Adstock, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We check how each frame can be reached safely.
  2. All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
  3. Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
  4. Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
  5. The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Advice

With historic houses such as Claydon House (about 3.2 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Adstock as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

Should I try it myself first?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
