Window Mastic in Ellisfield
Problem with your window and door frames in Ellisfield? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
How we handle window mastic in Ellisfield
Whether it’s one leaking patio door or every frame on the house, the work is priced before anything is done. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us how many frames there are and how they’re reached. We work on uPVC windows, aluminium frames and composite doors, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked sealant at the sill ends and rain getting in at the frame or under the sill.
In a village or hamlet like Ellisfield, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Frames and glazing around Ellisfield
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Hall Place (about 3.9 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Ellisfield has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
If you live in an older home near Church of St. Martin, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself usually takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Ellisfield, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- All the failed sealant is cut away.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe condensation off the frames
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Don’t aim a pressure washer at the joints
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak.
Signs to watch for: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. If you notice one, it’s time to get the joint looked at.
Questions from Ellisfield
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Basingstoke station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Ellisfield for window mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Ellisfield is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Usually, yes. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we’ll use the nearest match.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
Yes, where the draught is at the frame edge. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Signs you need window mastic in Ellisfield
Mastic ages in the weather. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
Letting a property close to Basingstoke station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.
Before you book anyone
- How long the guarantee is
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
Landlord and commercial work in Ellisfield
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
Stone and concrete sills have their own joints, and the joint under the frame can let rain run behind. We seal those with a sealant suited to masonry.
uPVC windows
The frame is cleaned with a product that will not harm the plastic, then the sealant goes in between frame and wall and tooled smooth.

When something else is needed
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
