Why act early in Eastbury
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: it takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. In a small place like Eastbury, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What you get with us
- We never seal over old sealant

About our window mastic in Eastbury
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. A new joint stops the air getting through and quietens the whistle on windy days. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we will tell you. We work on patio & French doors, uPVC windows and timber windows & doors, and people most often call us about gaps where the sill meets the wall and gaps left after new windows were fitted.
Homes in small places like Eastbury often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Eastbury and everywhere else we cover.

How we quote for window mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The size of the job
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Where the property is
- If someone has resealed it before
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
Eastbury: your questions answered
Is Eastbury within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover Eastbury for window mastic?
Yes, Eastbury is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, with our 12-month guarantee. A yearly look at the joints helps them last.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
Often, yes. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and resealing inside and out closes it.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
Common problems we fix in Eastbury
Sills take more water than any other part of a window, so the sill ends and the joint below the frame are common leak points. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Black, perished sealant on frames
In and around Eastbury, as anywhere, good window mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What to look for in a quote
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Is VAT in the price?
- Are they insured?
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. It generally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. In a small place like Eastbury, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- All the failed sealant is cut away.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
Silicone cannot usually be painted, so mention any painting plans before work begins. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.
On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Once wood has rotted, it needs repair before it can be sealed, so early resealing is worth it.
