Window mastic in Chilton Green

How we handle window mastic in Chilton Green

There are two joints on most windows. Outside, the mastic keeps rain out; inside, the joint between frame and plaster stops draughts and tidies the reveal. We seal one or both, depending on what’s needed. Common call-outs are for gaps where the sill meets the wall and black, perished sealant on frames, on composite doors, window sills and uPVC windows.

Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Chilton Green is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.

Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Isle of Wight.

Keeping the joints in good condition

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Clear any debris from frame drain holes
  • Keep timber frames painted
  • Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
  • Paint up to the joint, not over it

Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.

Leaks normally show up in wet, windy weather, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • A failed sealed unit that has misted up
  • Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
  • A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Patio & French doors
  • Timber windows & doors
  • Window sills
  • uPVC windows

Chilton Green: your questions answered

Will you come out to Chilton Green?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Does living near the coast affect window mastic in Chilton Green?

Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.

What information do you need?

Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

Can you do the inside joint as well?

Yes. The outside joint keeps the weather out, and the inside joint stops draughts and finishes the reveal. We do one or both.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.

Landlord and commercial work in Chilton Green

We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right 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.

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.

What affects the quote in Chilton Green

We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • How much there is to do
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • The type of property
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Whether it has been sealed before

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Chilton Green homes and the weather

Chilton Green is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on the mastic around window and door frames, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

If you look after a building such as Brighstone Church of England Aided 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 Peter and St Paul's Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Chilton Green is about 7 miles south-west of Newport, in the Isle of Wight.

Leave it or put it right?

Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially on upper floors. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. In a small place like Chilton Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

How it works

There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as Chilton Green, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First we look at every frame and agree the list.
  2. The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
  3. We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
  4. We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
  5. Finally we tidy up and check each joint.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
