Window mastic for homes and businesses in Burgh Hill
Around Burgh Hill we seal all kinds of frames: uPVC, aluminium, timber and composite, along with patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. We are often asked to deal with cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame and a bead that doesn’t match the frame, on patio & French doors, composite doors and window sills.
In a village or hamlet like Burgh Hill, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Window mastic in Burgh Hill: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Bateman's (about 3.8 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Burgh Hill has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Homes close to Holy Trinity include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. If you look after a building such as Etchingham Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
Burgh Hill is about 11 miles north-west of Hastings, in East Sussex. Across the TN19 area, our applicators can take on window mastic. Burgh Hill is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex where we work. Brighton is on our list too, around 28 miles away.

Local landmarks in Burgh Hill
Around Burgh Hill, our work takes us to homes and buildings near The Old Bull Inn and Robertsbridge Community College. The closest station to Burgh Hill is Etchingham station, about 0.7 miles south-west. A little further out are Ticehurst House Hospital (3.3 miles north-west). Not far away are Bewl Water.
Why act early in Burgh Hill
Once mastic fails, rain can get between the frame and the wall. Over time that can mean damp patches, damaged plaster and rotting timber. Resealing now is a small job by comparison. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Burgh Hill, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

What we are called out for in Burgh Hill
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.
Look out for any of the following:
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Letting a property close to Etchingham station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Burgh Hill: your questions answered
Will you come out to Burgh Hill?
Yes. Burgh Hill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Etchingham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
How much does window mastic cost in Burgh Hill?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Do you guarantee window mastic?
Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
How the job changes by surface
Patio & French doors
Door frames take knocks and movement every time the doors are used. The sealant must cope with it.
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.

How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames for a typical job. Somewhere as small as Burgh Hill, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:

- A frame that has rotted at the joint

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
