Questions from Copythorne
Do you cover smaller places like Copythorne?
Yes, Copythorne is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Ashurst New Forest station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, if safe access is possible. For high or awkward windows, we’ll tell you what access is needed.
How long should I leave it?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Letting agents and landlords in Copythorne can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Copythorne, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Check the mastic once a year
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Keep timber frames painted
Most silicone sealants won’t take paint, so mention any painting plans before any work starts. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.
A small gap around a frame only grows. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and heat escapes around the frame. A new joint closes it up.
Leave it or put it right?
If you’re painting or rendering, reseal at the same time. Fresh joints finish the job neatly. Around Copythorne, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Common problems we fix in Copythorne
Mastic ages in the weather. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.
Look out for any of the following:
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Copythorne CofE Infant School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Windows and doors in Copythorne
With historic houses such as Landford Manor (about 4.6 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Copythorne 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 is traditional sand mastic. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Letting a property close to Ashurst New Forest station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Composite doors
- Window sills
- uPVC windows
- Patio & French doors
- Timber windows & doors
- Aluminium frames
Surface by surface
Window sills
The end joints of a sill tend to fail before the rest. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Patio & French doors
Water at the foot of a door frame is not always the mastic: blocked drain slots, worn brush seals and threshold details can let water in too. We check before we reseal.
