How we handle window mastic in Dawesgreen
Over two decades of sealing frames has taught us which products suit which walls. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee. Typical jobs include cracked internal joints between frame and plaster and old mastic that has gone black or come away, on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and composite doors.
In a village or hamlet like Dawesgreen, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What sealant work cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Faulty window hardware
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe condensation off the frames
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Check the mastic once a year
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. Often the first sign is a damp patch inside or flaking paint on the reveal. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.

Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Can you do the inside joint as well?
Yes. Plenty of draughts come through the inside joint as well as the outside, so it can be worth sealing both.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Dawesgreen and across Surrey. Several sites can be quoted together, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Leave it or put it right?
Failed mastic isn’t a reason to replace sound windows. Where the frames are sound, new mastic normally deals with draughts and leaks at the edges. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we’ll tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Dawesgreen can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- We agree the colour with you first
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Colour picked to suit the job
- Fully insured
Read our cost guide or what customers say.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
When to call us in Dawesgreen
Every frame moves through the day. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Burys Court School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Window mastic in Dawesgreen: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For landlords with property near Betchworth station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. If you live in an older home near Church of St Bartholomew, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
