Window mastic in Broadford: local notes
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 Loseley Park (about 1.4 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Broadford 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 is traditional sand mastic.
In the older streets around St Michael, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Shalford Infant School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Window mastic for homes and businesses in Broadford
Over two decades of sealing frames has taught us which products suit which walls. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee. We work on timber windows & doors, aluminium frames and patio & French doors, and common reasons people get in touch are a bead that doesn’t match the frame and cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame.
In a village or hamlet like Broadford, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Broadford and everywhere else we cover.

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
Timber frames need their paint kept up, since wood that gets wet swells and shrinks more. Paint up to the joint, not over the silicone.
Water trapped behind a failed joint can start rot in timber frames and sills. Once wood has rotted, it needs repair before it can be sealed, so it pays to reseal before that happens.
What the job involves on each surface
uPVC windows
Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so the joint needs a low-modulus sealant that stays flexible. White is the usual colour, with brown, anthracite grey and black for coloured frames.
Aluminium frames
Aluminium moves with heat, and the frames are often slimmer than uPVC. A neat, narrow bead in a colour to match suits the frame.

Questions from Broadford
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Shalford station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you do window mastic in Broadford?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Broadford is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you reach windows above the ground floor?
Yes, where it’s safe. For high or awkward windows, we will tell you what access is needed.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can you match the sealant to my frames?
Generally, yes. Mention the frame colour when you ask for a quote and we’ll match it as closely as we can.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What happens if it’s left?
Not every sealant suits a window. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone are not designed for outside joints that move. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. Older cottages and farmhouses around Broadford can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

When to call us in Broadford
Sills take more water than any other part of a window, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Draughty joints inside around the window
If you let a flat or house near Shalford station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
