Window Mastic in Cuddesdon
Mastic around window and door frames, sills and patio doors for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Cuddesdon. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- A bead that does not match the frame
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Leaks generally show up in wet, windy weather, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.

Window mastic in Cuddesdon: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Garsington Manor (about 1.3 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Cuddesdon has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
Cuddesdon is about 5 miles south-east of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. We carry out window mastic for homes and businesses in Cuddesdon and the surrounding area. Cuddesdon is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire where we work for window mastic.

Common problems we fix in Cuddesdon
A lot of older mastic was never designed to stay flexible. Once it’s rigid, every bit of frame movement pulls at it, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Garsington Church of England Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

How the job changes by surface
uPVC windows
Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so we use a flexible, low-modulus sealant. White is the usual colour, with brown, anthracite grey and black for coloured frames.
Window sills
Masonry sills can have joints where water gets in, and the joint under the frame can let rain run behind. Those are sealed with a product suited to stone or concrete.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
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.
Landlord and commercial work in Cuddesdon
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Letting agents and landlords in Cuddesdon can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Why it’s worth doing now in Cuddesdon
Resealing frames is a short job: it takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Cuddesdon, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
