About our window mastic in Aldington

If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. A new joint stops the air getting through and quietens the whistle on windy days. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with a bead that doesn’t match the frame and gaps where the sill meets the wall, we can help, on patio & French doors, composite doors and window sills alike.

Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Aldington is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Aldington and across Kent.

How the job changes by surface

Aluminium frames

Aluminium needs a sealant that bonds to coated metal, and acetoxy silicones aren’t used, as they can attack some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.

uPVC windows

We clean the frame edge carefully so the plastic is not marked, then the new bead is laid against the frame and the wall.

What sealant work cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • A failed sealed unit that has misted up
  • A frame that has rotted at the joint
  • Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Where we work in Aldington

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.

Do you need window mastic in Aldington?

Every frame moves through the day. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. A sealant that cannot keep up eventually tears.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Draughts coming in around windows and doors
  • Rushed sealant from a window installation
  • Mastic that has split away from the wall
  • A bead that does not match the frame

If you let a flat or house near Ham Street station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Are they insured?
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first

How to choose a mastic man

Why act early in Aldington

Choosing the product is half the job. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t designed for outside joints that move. A low-modulus exterior sealant keeps its stretch through hot and cold weather. In a small place like Aldington, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

A few things move the cost up or down: 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.

What you get with us

  • Tidy, careful work
  • We never seal over old sealant
  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

See our cost guide and what customers say.

How it works

You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Aldington, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
  2. Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
  4. Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
  5. We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.

How to prepare

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice

Window mastic in Aldington: local notes

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 3.9 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Aldington 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’s traditional sand mastic.

Homes close to Church of St Martin include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Managing a site like Aldington Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

DIY versus a professional finish

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
