How we handle window mastic in Beckley Furnace
The new joint doesn’t have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. We work on patio & French doors, composite doors and timber windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are draughty joints inside around the window and sealant in the wrong colour for the frame.
Around Beckley Furnace, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped

Landlord and commercial work in Beckley Furnace
For anyone letting property in or around Beckley Furnace, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Landlords and agents in Beckley Furnace can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Why deal with it now?
Failed mastic is not a reason to replace sound windows. If the frames and glass are in good order, resealing the joints is often all that’s needed. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we’ll tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Beckley Furnace can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

What else we do in Beckley Furnace
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Surface by surface
Patio & French doors
Water at the foot of a door frame is not always the mastic: blocked drain slots, worn brush seals and threshold details can let water in too. We look for the cause first.
Window sills
Every drop off the glass ends up on the sill, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
How we quote for window mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any mould that needs treating
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The amount of work
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The rough size of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
- The type of property
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that’s easy.

What window mastic looks like in Beckley Furnace
Historic houses like Great Dixter (about 2.7 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Beckley Furnace has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

Great Dixter, about 2.7 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Beckley Furnace, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.
