About our window mastic in Causeway End

Most frames have an outside joint and an inside one. The external joint is the weather seal; the internal joint closes the gap to the plaster and stops draughts. Either or both can be done. If you have old mastic that has gone black or come away and cracked sealant at the sill ends, we can put it right, on composite doors, timber windows & doors and window sills alike.

Around Causeway End, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Why act early in Causeway End

The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: the visit takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. In a small place like Causeway End, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

What you get with us

  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • Sealant colour chosen to suit
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every job

How the visit works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Causeway End, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
  2. We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
  3. Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
  4. The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
  5. Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Looking after it afterwards

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Look round the frames every year or so
  • Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked
  • Paint up to the joint, not over it
  • Wash the frames with mild soapy water

Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.

Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.

What the job involves on each surface

Patio & French doors

Heavy door frames can move more than windows. The sealant must cope with it without cracking.

Timber windows & doors

Older timber windows in stone or brick can suit sand mastic rather than modern sealant. We’ll tell you which suits your home.

DIY versus a professional finish

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.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

That depends on the product. Silicone is not paintable, but some hybrid sealants are. Tell us if you are decorating and we’ll choose accordingly.

Do the sealants smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.

Frames and glazing around Causeway End

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.

If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Cross, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you look after a building such as Felsted Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
