About our window mastic in Carshalton
Over two decades of sealing frames has taught us which products suit which walls. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee. We work on window sills, composite doors and timber windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and cold air getting in at the frame edge.
Many London homes are flats, with windows high above the street. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Common questions in Carshalton
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Carshalton station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Carshalton for window mastic?
Yes, Carshalton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
Silicone generally won’t take paint. Let us know beforehand, and we will use a paintable product where it suits.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.
How much does window mastic cost in Carshalton?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
Often, yes. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and sealing the inside and outside joints closes that path.
How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. In Carshalton, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- All the failed sealant is cut away.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear the area around the work

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Frames and glazing around Carshalton
Historic houses like Nonsuch Mansion (about 2.7 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Carshalton has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so it’s worth checking before booking.
Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. Letting a property close to Carshalton station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

How the job changes by surface
Patio & French doors
Water at the foot of a door frame is not always the mastic: worn seals, blocked drainage slots or a poor threshold detail can be the cause. We check before we reseal.
Aluminium frames
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the bottom joint sees the most water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.

What else we do in Carshalton
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Carshalton
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
As a London address, Carshalton can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- A sash or casement that won’t close properly
