How we handle window mastic in Aldington Frith

Frames and walls don’t move together. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. So the sealant has to stretch and recover, which is why we use a low-modulus product. We work on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and timber windows & doors, and common reasons people get in touch are mastic that has split away from the wall and gaps where the sill meets the wall.

Homes in small places like Aldington Frith often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Leave it or put it right?

Once mastic fails, rain can get between the frame and the wall. Over time that can mean damp patches, damaged plaster and rotting timber. A reseal is a much smaller job. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Aldington Frith, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

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 go through it with you.

What happens on the day

Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Somewhere as small as Aldington Frith, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
  2. The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
  3. Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
  4. The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
  5. Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Clear the area around the work

Frames and glazing around Aldington Frith

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Westenhanger Castle (about 5 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Aldington Frith 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.

Westenhanger Castle, about 5 miles east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Aldington Frith, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.

Should I try it myself first?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

When to call us in Aldington Frith

Every frame moves through the day. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.

The problems people generally mention when they call include:

  • Draughts coming in around windows and doors
  • Gaps where the sill meets the wall
  • Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
  • Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal

For landlords with property near Ham Street station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

10 questions to ask before booking

Aldington Frith: your questions answered

Can you do window mastic in Aldington Frith?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Aldington Frith is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you cover smaller places like Aldington Frith?

Yes, Aldington Frith is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Let us know what needs doing and where. We will ask anything else we need to know.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Can you match the sealant to my frames?

Usually, yes. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we will use the nearest match.

Does the work come with a guarantee?

Yes, for 12 months. Keeping drainage clear and checking the joints yearly helps them last.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we are fully insured.

Will new mastic stop draughts?

Yes, if the air is getting in around the frame. If it’s through the window’s own seals or a hinge, that is a different fix, and we’ll say so.

Surface by surface

uPVC windows

Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so we use a flexible, low-modulus sealant. We match white, brown, anthracite grey and black frames.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
  • Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
  • Repaint timber before it’s bare
  • Wash the frames with mild soapy water

A yearly look round the frames is enough. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early.

Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. A new joint closes it up.
