Why act early in Calcott
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially upstairs. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. In a small place like Calcott, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Surface by surface
Window sills
Masonry sills can have joints where water gets in, and the joint under the frame can let rain run behind. We seal those with a sealant suited to masonry.
Composite doors
Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, so its perimeter joint is sealed much like a window. We match the colour to the frame.

Window mastic in Calcott: local notes

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep timber frames painted
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
Check the drainage slots in the frames are not blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.
Look out for the warning signs: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. Any of these is worth a call.

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
