Window mastic in Dorney Reach
Mr Mastic’s applicators have more than 20 years’ experience with window and door sealants. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee. Common call-outs are for water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and draughts coming in around windows and doors, across patio & French doors, window sills and composite doors.
In a village or hamlet like Dorney Reach, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What we cannot put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant will not put right:
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Composite doors
- Aluminium frames
- uPVC windows
- Timber windows & doors
- Patio & French doors
- Window sills
Windows and doors in Dorney Reach
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. With historic houses such as Dorney Court (about 0.6 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Dorney Reach 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.
For landlords with property near Taplow station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. Homes close to Church of St James include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Questions from Dorney Reach
Can you do window mastic in Dorney Reach?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Dorney Reach is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Will you come out to Dorney Reach?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
What does window mastic cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?
Yes. Outside is the weather seal; inside closes the gap to the plaster. We can do either or both.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How long does it take to reseal the windows on a house?
A few frames take a few hours, while a whole house takes longer. We confirm the timing with your quote.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Somewhere as small as Dorney Reach, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Related advice
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Surface by surface
Aluminium frames
Aluminium moves with heat, and the frames are often slimmer than uPVC. A neat, narrow bead in a colour to match keeps the clean look.
Window sills
Where a sill meets brick or render, the ends often crack first. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Do you need window mastic in Dorney Reach?
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Mastic that is falling out in pieces
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
Schools such as Dorney School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
What to look for in a quote
