About our window mastic in Church Town

Colour matters on a frame. We can seal in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. If you’re dealing with black, perished sealant on frames and white mastic on grey or black frames, we can put it right.

Somewhere as small as Church Town, 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.

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

Do you need window mastic in Church Town?

Joint shape matters as much as the product. A skim of sealant over a wide gap soon tears, and a gap filled solid can’t flex. That’s what backing rod is for.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Cold air getting in at the frame edge
  • Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
  • Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
  • Cracked sealant at the sill ends

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Questions to ask before booking

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared

Windows and doors in Church Town

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Titsey Place (about 3.8 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Church Town as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.

If you look after a building such as Godstone Village School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Godstone station change hands often, and renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Clear any debris from frame drain holes
  • Paint up to the joint, not over it
  • Check the mastic once a year
  • Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside

Keep the new mastic undisturbed while it cures, for as long as we advise. Do not point a pressure washer at the joints.

Leaks normally show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.

What the job involves on each surface

Composite doors

Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, and the joint around it is sealed like a window. The bead is colour-matched to the frame.

Aluminium frames

Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.

FAQs for Church Town

Is Church Town within the area you cover?

Yes, Church Town is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you cover Church Town for window mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Church Town is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Do you work on first-floor windows?

Yes, if safe access is possible. Higher or awkward frames may need extra access, and we will confirm what’s needed.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.

How long should I leave it?

Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.

Should I try DIY first?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Can new window sealant be painted?

Silicone generally will not take paint. Let us know beforehand, and we’ll use a paintable product where it suits.

Do the sealants smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

When something else is needed

In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
  • A frame that has rotted at the joint
  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Window sills

The process

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. For a village or hamlet like Church Town, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
  2. All the failed sealant is cut away.
  3. Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
  4. Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
  5. The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.

Getting ready for the visit

Related advice

Why deal with it now?

A cracked joint around a frame lets rain into the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. A reseal is a much smaller job. Around Church Town, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.
