About our window mastic in Blackmore
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 will tell you. Typical jobs include mastic that’s falling out in pieces and a bead that doesn’t match the frame, on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and uPVC windows.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Blackmore is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Blackmore and across Essex.

Do you need window mastic in Blackmore?
Every frame moves through the day. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. A sealant that cannot keep up eventually tears.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
For landlords with property near Ingatestone station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Common questions in Blackmore
Will you come out to Blackmore?
Yes. Blackmore is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ingatestone station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
How long before the joint can be used?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.
Can new window sealant be painted?
It depends on the sealant. Some hybrid sealants can be painted; silicone can’t. Tell us if you are decorating and we’ll choose accordingly.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Why act early in Blackmore
Resealing frames is a short job: it takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. Around Blackmore, older homes often have timber in their 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 unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What you get with us
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Old sealant always removed completely

Blackmore homes and the weather
Historic houses like Ingatestone Hall (about 3.8 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Blackmore has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Schools such as Blackmore Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. In the older streets around Church of St Laurence, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackmore
Landlords and agents in Blackmore can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Faulty window hardware
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.
