DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
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.

Signs you need window mastic in Ascott d'Oyley
Joints that are too thin or too deep fail early. A skim of sealant over a wide gap soon tears, while a joint packed solid can’t stretch. Backing rod sets the right depth.
Look out for any of the following:
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
In the older streets around Church of the Holy Trinity, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
Yes, if the air is getting in around the frame. If it’s coming through the window seals, we will tell you.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Yes, we choose a colour to suit the frame. Grey and black frames get grey or black sealant, and wood-effect frames usually suit brown.
Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?
Yes. The outside joint keeps the weather out, and the inside joint stops draughts and finishes the reveal. We can do either or both.
How we quote for window mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The size of the job
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The type of property
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Check the mastic once a year
- Keep paint off silicone joints
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside
Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, following the cure time we give you. Keep jet washers away from the frames.
A small gap around a frame only grows. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. A new joint closes it up.
