Window mastic in Arford
A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. A new joint stops the air getting through. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we’ll tell you. We work on window sills, patio & French doors and uPVC windows, and the jobs we see most are cold air getting in at the frame edge and sealant in the wrong colour for the frame.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Arford is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Why deal with it now?
A cracked joint around a frame lets rain into the wall. Over time that can mean damp patches, damaged plaster and rotting timber. A reseal is a much smaller job. In a small place like Arford, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Wipe condensation off the frames
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Do not paint over the silicone
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak.
Signs to watch for: cracks in the mastic, gaps you can see light through, damp on the reveal or mould around the inside of the frame. Any of these is worth a call.
Surface by surface
Timber windows & doors
On period timber windows, traditional sand mastic is sometimes the better choice. We can talk through the options.
Aluminium frames
Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
Frames and glazing around Arford
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Letting a property close to Liphook station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Signs you need window mastic in Arford
Some failures date back to when the windows were fitted. Mastic laid onto dusty, damp or crumbling surfaces never bonded as it should, so it comes away long before its time.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Draughty joints inside around the window
Managing a site like The Holme Church of England Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Arford: your questions answered
I let a flat near Liphook station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Arford within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you match the sealant to my frames?
Yes. Grey and black frames get grey or black sealant, and wood-effect frames generally suit brown.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Can you do upstairs windows?
Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Tell us about access when you get in touch so we can plan the job.
Can you do the inside joint as well?
Yes. Draughts often come through the inside gap too, so it can be worth sealing both.
The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere like Arford needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
