Window mastic for homes and businesses in Coleman's Hatch

From a single sill to a whole house of windows, you’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us how many frames there are and how they’re reached. We work on timber windows & doors, patio & French doors and aluminium frames, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps left after new windows were fitted and cracked internal joints between frame and plaster.

Around Coleman's Hatch, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Coleman's Hatch as everywhere else we work.

Leave it or put it right?

Getting a straight, even bead on an outside frame takes practice, especially upstairs. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. In a small place like Coleman's Hatch, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

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. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why choose Mr Mastic in Coleman's Hatch

  • Fully insured
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

  • ARBOMaster approved applicator

What affects the cost of window mastic

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The type of sealant required
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Access and height

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Helping us quote

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • The rough size of the job
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

It all starts with a short chat. 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.

What the job involves on each surface

Patio & French doors

Patio and French doors have the longest joints on most houses. Most leaks start at the bottom corners, so they get particular care.

Window sills

Where a sill meets brick or render, the ends often crack first. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

The process

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Coleman's Hatch needs a little journey planning: 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 go round the frames with you and agree the list.
  2. We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
  3. Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
  4. The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
  5. We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.

Preparing for the visit

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Window mastic in Coleman's Hatch: local notes

With historic houses such as Bassetts Manor (about 2.6 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Coleman's Hatch as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

If you let a flat or house near East Grinstead station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Coleman's Hatch is about 4 miles south-east of East Grinstead, in East Sussex. Jobs in Coleman's Hatch get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee. Across East Sussex, we cover 289 places, and Coleman's Hatch is one of them. For nearby work, see our Crawley page (11 miles or so).

What we’re called out for in Coleman's Hatch

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.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
  • Draughty joints inside around the window
  • Cold air getting in at the frame edge
  • Mastic that’s falling out in pieces

If you live in an older home near Holy Trinity Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

What your quote should include

  • How hidden problems are handled
  • What product goes in the joint
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • Whether VAT is included
