What sealant work can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- A sash or casement that won’t close properly

How we handle window mastic in Broadley Common
Every window and door frame has a gap around it, and mastic is what closes it. Once that seal fails, wind and rain find the gap. Our applicators cut it out and replace it with a flexible, weatherproof sealant. If you have old mastic that has gone black or come away and white mastic on grey or black frames, we can put it right, on aluminium frames, timber windows & doors and patio & French doors alike.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Broadley Common is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
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.

What affects the quote in Broadley Common
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Access and height
- Any working-time requirements on site
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere as small as Broadley Common, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

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.
Is Broadley Common in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Broadley Common is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Do you seal inside as well as outside?
Yes. Inside, the joint between frame and plaster is sealed neatly.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Can resealing stop a draught around my window?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We check where the draught is before work begins.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

What we are called out for in Broadley Common
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. Sunlight dries the surface out, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
If you look after a building such as Water Lane Primary Academy, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Broadley Common 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. For landlords with property near Roydon station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Leave it or put it right?
Getting a straight, even bead on an outside frame takes practice, especially upstairs. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Around Broadley Common, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
