Window mastic for homes and businesses in Curling Tye Green
Every window and door frame has a gap around it, and mastic is what closes it. When it cracks, hardens or pulls away, draughts and rain get in. The old mastic is removed and the joint resealed with a flexible exterior sealant. We work on uPVC windows, composite doors and window sills, and people most often call us about white mastic on grey or black frames and black, perished sealant on frames.
Somewhere as small as Curling Tye Green, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Do you need window mastic in Curling Tye Green?
Frames are never completely still. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Plume School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

FAQs for Curling Tye Green
Will you come out to Curling Tye Green?
Yes. Curling Tye Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Does the coastal weather in Curling Tye Green affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Is the new sealant paintable?
Not usually, if it’s silicone. Tell us your decorating plans and we’ll pick a sealant to suit.
How do I get a quote for window mastic in Curling Tye Green?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Frames and glazing around Curling Tye Green
Curling Tye Green is within about 3 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. Historic houses like Danbury Place (about 3.8 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Curling Tye Green has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
In the older streets around Church of St Michael, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Rented homes near Hatfield Peverel station change hands often, and renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Wipe condensation off the frames
- Keep timber frames painted
Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, for as long as we advise. Keep jet washers away from the frames.
Look out for the warning signs: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. Any of these is worth a call.

Other services in Curling Tye Green
Different surfaces, different methods
uPVC windows
Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so the joint needs a low-modulus sealant that stays flexible. We match white, brown, anthracite grey and black frames.
Aluminium frames
Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.
The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. For a village or hamlet like Curling Tye Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
- Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Related advice
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
