Window mastic near Blenheim

Windows and doors in Blenheim

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. With historic houses such as Garsington Manor (about 0.5 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Blenheim as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Garsington Church of England Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Radley station? Then sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Blenheim is about 4 miles south-east of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. Jobs in Blenheim get the same care as everywhere else we work: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. 443 places in Oxfordshire are on our list.

Window mastic in Blenheim, done properly

Behind a thin line of old mastic there’s sometimes a deep void. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that can’t flex, so we fit backing rod to set the right depth. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. Common call-outs are for white mastic on grey or black frames and draughts coming in around windows and doors, on timber windows & doors, patio & French doors and composite doors.

Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Blenheim is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Do you need window mastic in Blenheim?

Timber windows bring their own problems. Old mastic gets painted over and cracks under the paint, and timber moves with moisture as well as temperature.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
  • Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
  • Black, perished sealant on frames
  • Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

Our hiring checklist

Blenheim: your questions answered

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Radley station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Will you come out to Blenheim?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

What do you put in the joint?

It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Are you fully insured?

Yes, we are fully insured for every job we do.

Can you match the sealant to my frames?

Usually, yes. Mention the frame colour when you ask for a quote and we’ll match it as closely as we can.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we are fully insured.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.

What information do you need?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.

How we quote for window mastic

Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • The amount of work
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How many areas need sealing
  • The type of sealant required

Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

What we need to know

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • Where the property is
  • The type of property
  • The problem you’ve noticed

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add pictures by email if you can.

Why deal with it now?

Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially on upper floors. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Blenheim, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will talk you through it.

Why Blenheim clients choose us

  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • Over 20 years’ experience
  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • Full insurance on every job

Can I do it myself?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Looking after it afterwards

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
  • Don’t paint over the silicone
  • Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
  • Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints

Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.

Signs to watch for: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. Any of these is worth a call.

What happens on the day

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Somewhere as small as Blenheim, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We check how each frame can be reached safely.
  2. All the failed sealant is cut away.
  3. Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
  4. Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
  5. We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move anything stored near the joints
