About our window mastic in Catsfield
A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. A new joint stops the air getting through. Where the air is getting in through the window itself, we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for cracked internal joints between frame and plaster and old mastic that has gone black or come away, on timber windows & doors, composite doors and window sills.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Catsfield is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Why it’s worth doing now in Catsfield
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: the visit takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. Older cottages and farmhouses around Catsfield can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
Timber frames need their paint kept up, because bare, wet timber moves more and pulls at the joint. Keep paint off the silicone itself.
Look out for the warning signs: cracks in the mastic, gaps you can see light through, damp on the reveal or mould around the inside of the frame. Any of these is worth a call.
What we are called out for in Catsfield
Every frame moves through the day. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. A sealant that can’t keep up eventually tears.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Mastic that is falling out in pieces
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
If you look after a building such as Catsfield Church of England Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Will new mastic stop draughts?
Yes, where the draught is at the frame edge. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.
How long does it take to reseal the windows on a house?

Where are you based?

What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
What window mastic looks like in Catsfield
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. With historic houses such as Durhamford Manor (about 4.4 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Catsfield 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.
Homes close to The Parish Church of St Laurence include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. For landlords with property near Battle station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

How the visit works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. In a small place like Catsfield, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
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.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Different surfaces, different methods
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so we pay close attention there.
Aluminium frames
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.
