Window mastic for homes and businesses in Durrant Green
A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. Resealing that joint can make a room feel noticeably less draughty. Where the air is getting in through the window itself, we’ll say so. If you have water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and white mastic on grey or black frames, we can help, on aluminium frames, timber windows & doors and composite doors alike.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Durrant Green is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Somewhere like Durrant Green 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.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
- Check the mastic once a year
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
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.

Durrant Green questions
Is Durrant Green in your area for window mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Durrant Green is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Durrant Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Let us know about access when you ask for a quote so we can plan the job.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.

Durrant Green homes and the weather
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Smallhythe Place (about 4.3 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Durrant Green as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Michael, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Managing a site like St Michael's Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Pluckley station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

How the job changes by surface
Composite doors
An exposed front door gets wind-driven rain. Those corners get the most care.
Window sills
Every drop off the glass ends up on the sill, so the sill ends and the joint under the frame are vital. They’re cut out and resealed with exterior sealant.
Leave it or put it right?
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: the visit takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. Around Durrant Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
