Window & door mastic in Coleshill, Buckinghamshire

Leave it or put it right?

Once mastic fails, rain can get between the frame and the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. A reseal is a much smaller job. In a small place like Coleshill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

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’ll know the price before we begin.

What window mastic looks like in Coleshill

Historic houses like Chenies Manor House (about 4.6 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Coleshill has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

Schools such as Coleshill Church of England Infant School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Rented homes near Amersham station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Should I try it myself first?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
