Window & door mastic in Cookham, Windsor and Maidenhead

How we handle window mastic in Cookham
Whether it’s one leaking patio door or every frame on the house, the work is priced before anything is done. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the number of frames and any access details. We’re often asked to deal with cracked sealant at the sill ends and gaps between the frame and the inside reveal, across uPVC windows, aluminium frames and window sills.
In a smaller place like Cookham, some walls face open ground and catch the full force of the weather, so exposed windows and doors face the weather head on. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Quotes for window mastic in Cookham
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

- The rough size of the job

Common problems we fix in Cookham
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
Letting a property close to Cookham station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
What your quote should include

- Is VAT in the price?

Why act early in Cookham
Failed mastic isn’t a reason to replace sound windows. If the frames and glass are in good order, resealing the joints is often all that is needed. Problems with the glass or gaskets are for a window company, and we’ll say so. In an older home around Cookham, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What you get with us

Windows and doors in Cookham
With historic houses such as Cliveden (about 1.7 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Cookham 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. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In the older streets around Church of St John the Baptist, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Managing a site like Cookham Rise Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Related advice
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed 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.

It will if the frame joint is the problem. We check where the draught is before we start.
