How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Somewhere as small as Burnham Green, 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.
- 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.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
Window mastic in Burnham Green, done properly
The new joint does not have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. Common call-outs are for water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and a bead that doesn’t match the frame, across timber windows & doors, patio & French doors and aluminium frames.
Homes in small places like Burnham Green often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Window mastic in Burnham Green: 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. With historic houses such as Digswell House (about 1.9 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Burnham Green as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
If you let a flat or house near Welwyn North station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. Historic houses such as Digswell House, about 1.9 miles south-west, show how far back building around Burnham Green goes, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls. Managing a site like Monk's Walk School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Keep paint off silicone joints
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
Keep sill grooves and drainage slots clear, so rain drains out rather than building up at the sealant.
Draughts get worse, not better. As the old mastic shrinks further, more air gets through, and a cold room gets colder. Resealing closes it.
FAQs for Burnham Green
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Welwyn North station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Burnham Green within the area you cover?
Yes, Burnham Green is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
Often, yes. The gap between frame and wall is a common source of draughts, and resealing inside and out closes it.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Can new window sealant be painted?
That depends on the product. Silicone isn’t paintable, but some hybrid sealants are. Mention any painting plans before any work starts.
How many windows can you do in a day?
A few frames take a few hours, while a whole house takes longer. We confirm the timing with your quote.

Different surfaces, different methods
Timber windows & doors
Timber moves with moisture as well as heat, so the joint must stay flexible. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.
Window sills
Stone and concrete sills have their own joints, including the one between the sill and the frame above. Those are sealed with a product suited to stone or concrete.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- A sash or casement that won’t close properly
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Window sills
- Patio & French doors
- uPVC windows
- Timber windows & doors
- Composite doors
- Aluminium frames
Why deal with it now?
Once mastic fails, rain can get between the frame and the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. Resealing now is a small job by comparison. In a small place like Burnham Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
