Window mastic for homes and businesses in Crockham Hill
Some gaps around frames are far deeper than they look. Filling it with sealant alone leaves a joint that cannot move properly, so we fit backing rod to set the right depth. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. We work on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and composite doors, and the jobs we see most are untidy mastic left by window fitters and hard, cracked sealant around windows.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Crockham Hill is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Somewhere like Crockham Hill needs a little journey planning: 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 start by checking each window and door with you.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.

What we’re called out for in Crockham Hill
Mastic ages in the weather. Sunlight dries the surface out, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Letting a property close to Edenbridge station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
What to look for in a quote
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether VAT is included
- When the joint can take water or movement
Why act early in Crockham Hill
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun is not easy, especially on upper floors. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Older cottages and farmhouses around Crockham Hill can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
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. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- We never seal over old sealant
- 180+ five-star Google reviews
What the job involves on each surface
Window sills
Sills catch the water running down the glass, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
Composite doors
An exposed front door gets wind-driven rain, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. Those corners get the most care.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- Faulty window hardware
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

What else we do in Crockham Hill
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
A failed joint lets water into the wall a little at a time. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.
Crockham Hill: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Crockham Hill?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do window mastic in Crockham Hill?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Crockham Hill is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Can you reach windows above the ground floor?
Yes, in most cases. We plan safe access before the job, so mention the height and anything in the way.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Can resealing stop a draught around my window?
Often, yes. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and resealing inside and out closes it.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Window mastic in Crockham Hill: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Chartwell (about 1 mile north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Crockham Hill as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
In the older streets around Holy Trinity Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
