About our window mastic in Chalfont St Giles
Around Chalfont St Giles we seal all kinds of frames: uPVC, aluminium, timber and composite, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. If you have sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain, we can help.
Many houses in smaller places like Chalfont St Giles have conservatories, garden rooms or patio doors. Those joints need the same attention as the main windows, and any older timber or sash windows need a sealant that suits them.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Window mastic in Chalfont St Giles: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Chenies Manor House (about 3.5 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Chalfont St Giles has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Giles, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Managing a site like Chalfont St Giles Infant School and Nursery? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

What we’re called out for in Chalfont St Giles
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. Sunlight dries the surface out, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- A bead that does not match the frame
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
For landlords with property near Seer Green & Jordans station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Keep paint off silicone joints
On timber frames, keep the paintwork in good order, because bare, wet timber moves more and pulls at the joint. Paint up to the joint, not over the silicone.
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.
How we quote for window mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The number and length of the joints
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Where the property is
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it’s a home or a business
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Can resealing stop a draught around my window?
If the draught is coming in around the frame, yes. If it’s coming through the window seals, we will tell you.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
