About our window mastic in Cressing
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. Resealing that joint can make a room feel noticeably less draughty. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we will tell you. We work on uPVC windows, timber windows & doors and aluminium frames, and common reasons people get in touch are old mastic that has gone black or come away and gaps where the sill meets the wall.
Around Cressing, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Questions from Cressing
Is Cressing within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Cressing station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
How much does window mastic cost in Cressing?

Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Can you do upstairs windows?
Yes, where it’s safe. Higher or awkward frames may need extra access, and we’ll confirm what’s needed.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Why act early in Cressing
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially upstairs. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Cressing, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

What the job involves on each surface
Aluminium frames
Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
Patio & French doors
Heavy door frames can move more than windows. A flexible sealant copes with that without cracking.

How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Cressing, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about parking restrictions

When to call us in Cressing
Frames are never completely still. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the masonry beside it stays put. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Draughty joints inside around the window
In the older streets around Parish Church of All Saints, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.
