About our window mastic in Boughton Monchelsea
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. A new joint stops the air getting through and quietens the whistle on windy days. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we will tell you. We work on window sills, composite doors and aluminium frames, and common reasons people get in touch are damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain and mastic that’s falling out in pieces.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Boughton Monchelsea is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. For a village or hamlet like Boughton Monchelsea, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by checking each window and door with you.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Do not aim a pressure washer at the joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Keep timber frames painted
Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, for as long as we advise. Keep jet washers away from the frames.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.

- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal

Boughton Monchelsea homes and the weather
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Stoneacre (about 2.2 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Boughton Monchelsea has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Managing a site like Boughton Monchelsea Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. In the older streets around Church of St Peter, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.

Surface by surface
Composite doors
Draughts round the door leaf normally come from worn seals or adjustment, not the mastic. We’ll tell you if that’s what we find.
Patio & French doors
Heavy door frames can move more than windows. A flexible sealant copes with that without cracking.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
