- A sash or casement that won’t close properly

Window mastic in Church Whitfield, done properly
Colour matters on a frame. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. We work on composite doors, uPVC windows and window sills, and the jobs we see most are cracked sealant at the sill ends and draughts coming in around windows and doors.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Church Whitfield is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we have gone.

Do you need window mastic in Church Whitfield?
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it’s rigid, every bit of frame movement pulls at it, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
For landlords with property near Kearsney station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Church Whitfield: your questions answered
Is Church Whitfield within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Does the coastal weather in Church Whitfield affect outside sealant?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are usually the first to need attention.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we are fully insured.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. More than one area can be quoted together.
How long does it take to reseal the windows on a house?
Allow most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Access and how stubborn the old mastic is affect the time most.
Do you guarantee window mastic?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job.
Windows and doors in Church Whitfield
Church Whitfield 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. Historic houses like Walmer Castle (about 4.9 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Church Whitfield 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.
If you look after a building such as Whitfield Aspen School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Homes close to Church of St Peter include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Wipe condensation off the frames
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
A small gap around a frame only grows. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. A new joint closes it up.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Church Whitfield 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, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any parking rules near the property

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
