How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Broom Street needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Window mastic for homes and businesses in Broom Street
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. Resealing that joint can make a room feel noticeably less draughty and quietens the whistle on windy days. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we will tell you. We work on composite doors, aluminium frames and window sills, and the jobs we see most are mastic that’s falling out in pieces and gaps between the frame and the inside reveal.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Broom Street is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.

Window mastic in Broom Street: local notes
Broom Street is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on the mastic around window and door frames, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you let a flat or house near Faversham station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. If you look after a building such as Graveney Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s 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 just mention it when you contact us.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of old mastic looks like an easy fix, but new sealant can’t bond to old, crumbling mastic. It soon lifts and the leak carries on behind it. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Broom Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep timber frames painted
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside
- Look round the frames every year or so
Most silicone sealants won’t take paint, so if you are planning to paint the frames or walls, tell us beforehand. We can use a paintable sealant where that matters.
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.
Surface by surface
Timber windows & doors
Wood swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it dries, so a flexible sealant is essential. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.
Composite doors
If the door itself is draughty, the issue may be the door seals or hinges rather than the frame mastic. We seal the frame and let you know about anything else.
Do you need window mastic in Broom Street?
On timber frames, paint and putty build up around the joint. Old mastic gets painted over and cracks under the paint, and the wood moves with damp as well as heat.
The most common problems we see are:
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Draughty joints inside around the window
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
