About our window mastic in Carterton
Over two decades of sealing frames has taught us which products suit which walls. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee. We work on aluminium frames, uPVC windows and window sills, and people most often call us about black, perished sealant on frames and leaking joints at the ends of sills.
Around Carterton, many houses have gained conservatories, French doors or replacement windows over time. Each one adds more joints to look after, and those joints age at different rates. Sills, frame heads and glazing joints are where leaks generally start.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Carterton and across Oxfordshire.

Surface by surface
Composite doors
An exposed front door gets wind-driven rain, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. Those corners get the most care.
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. Most leaks start at the bottom corners, so they get particular care.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
When it is not the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Windows and doors in Carterton
With historic houses such as Minster Lovell Hall (about 3.5 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Carterton as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Carterton Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. For an older house near a landmark such as St John the Evangelist, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Why deal with it now?
Running fresh sealant over the old joint is tempting, but it won’t grip old, dirty sealant. It peels before long, and water still gets in behind. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. Gaps in sealant and mould in the bead never get better on their own, and in a busy home in Carterton they get worse with every use. Now is the easy time to put it right.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating. Expect the work to take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In Carterton, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and let us know if the work is upstairs, in a flat or up high outside.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us if parking is tricky
