Allhallows Window Mastic
Window and door frames in Allhallows need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Keep paint off silicone joints
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
Look out for the warning signs: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. If you notice one, it’s time to get the joint looked at.

Why act early in Allhallows
Draughts and leaks don’t always mean new windows. Where the frames are sound, new mastic usually deals with draughts and leaks at the edges. Problems with the glass or gaskets are for a window company, and we’ll say so. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Allhallows, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Your questions about window mastic in Allhallows
Does the coastal weather in Allhallows affect outside sealant?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
Do you work for landlords with property near Chalkwell station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Can new window sealant be painted?
It depends on the sealant. Silicone isn’t paintable, but some hybrid sealants are. Tell us if you’re decorating and we’ll choose accordingly.
Do you seal inside as well as outside?
Yes, we do both. Indoors, we seal between the frame and the plaster or reveal, using a paintable sealant if you want to decorate.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
How long does it take to reseal the windows on a house?
Allow most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Access and how stubborn the old mastic is affect the time most.
Do you cover Allhallows?
Yes, we do. Our applicators work in Allhallows.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.

How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

What we cannot put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Window sills
- Patio & French doors
- Composite doors
- uPVC windows
- Timber windows & doors
- Aluminium frames
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: 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 does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Frames and glazing around Allhallows
Allhallows is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. 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 landlords with property near Chalkwell station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Signs you need window mastic in Allhallows
Some failures date back to when the windows were fitted. Sealant run over dust, wet brick or loose mortar never bonded as it should, and it lets go sooner than it should.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
If you look after a building such as Allhallows Primary Academy, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether you can choose the colour
