Window mastic in Hertfordshire: how it works

Whether it’s one leaking patio door or every frame on the house, the work is priced before anything is done. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us how many frames there are and how they’re reached. We work on window sills, composite doors and aluminium frames, and people most often call us about hard, cracked sealant around windows and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door.

We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house.

We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
Finally we tidy up and check each joint.

How we quote

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Window mastic across Hertfordshire: local notes

Our window mastic work across Hertfordshire covers homes, flats and businesses, in Watford, Hemel Hempstead and Stevenage and well beyond. Outside sealant needs a dry, clean joint, so the work is planned around the weather.

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outside sealant still needs a dry, clean joint, so work across Hertfordshire is planned around the weather.

Watford: Homes close to Church of St Andrew include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Schools such as Watford St John's Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Different surfaces, different methods

uPVC windows

Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so the joint needs a low-modulus sealant that stays flexible. White is the usual colour, with brown, anthracite grey and black for coloured frames.

Timber windows & doors

Older timber windows in stone or brick can suit sand mastic rather than modern sealant. We will tell you which suits your home.

What we are called out for in Hertfordshire

Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.

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

Hard, cracked sealant around windows
Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Mastic that is falling out in pieces
Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door

What affects the cost of window mastic

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

When we can work, for business premises
Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Whether the work is at height
How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Helping us quote

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

Roughly how big the job is
What’s wrong with the joints now
Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
If someone has resealed it before

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send photos if you have them.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

How to look after the new joints

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
Keep paint off silicone joints
Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant

Keep the new mastic undisturbed while it cures, following the cure time we give you. Keep jet washers away from the frames.

Signs to watch for: 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.

Your questions about window mastic in Hertfordshire

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for householders, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Hertfordshire.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Do I need to be at home?

That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Do you work in Hertfordshire?

Yes. We work in Hertfordshire. To book, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How long does it take to reseal the windows on a house?

It depends on access, the old mastic and the size of the frames. We will tell you how long your job needs when we quote.

Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?

Yes, in most cases. Mention the frame colour when you ask for a quote and we will match it as closely as we can.

Will resealing my frames help with draughts?

It will if the frame joint is the problem. We check where the draught is before we start.
