Caversfield: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Bicester North station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Caversfield?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Not if it’s silicone. Tell us your decorating plans and we will pick a sealant to suit.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
How much does window mastic cost in Caversfield?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
How we handle window mastic in Caversfield
Some gaps around frames are far deeper than they look. Filling it with sealant alone leaves a joint that can’t move properly, so deep gaps get backing rod first. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. If you have leaking joints at the ends of sills and mastic that has split away from the wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Caversfield, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What we are called out for in Caversfield
Water runs down the glass onto the sill, so the sill ends and the joint below the frame are common leak points. When that sealant fails, water gets into the wall or under the frame.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- A bead that does not match the frame
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
If you look after a building such as Southwold County Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Why act early in Caversfield
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: the visit takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. Around Caversfield, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Caversfield

Window mastic in Caversfield: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Letting a property close to Bicester North station? Then sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Lawrence, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’re 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 fails, we can still redo it.
How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Somewhere like Caversfield needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- 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
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What affects the cost of window mastic
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- The type of sealant required
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether the work is at height
- The size of the job
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Check the mastic once a year
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so it pays to reseal before that happens.
