Window Mastic in Empshott

Professional window mastic in and around Empshott, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a 12-month guarantee.

  • Hard, cracked sealant around windows
  • Cold air getting in at the frame edge
  • Gaps left after new windows were fitted

Window mastic near Empshott

Different surfaces, different methods

Composite doors

If the door itself is draughty, the issue may be the door seals or hinges rather than the frame mastic. We’ll tell you if that is what we find.

Aluminium frames

Metal frames expand in the sun and are often slim, with little room for error. A neat, narrow bead in a colour to match keeps the clean look.

Window mastic in Empshott, done properly

A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. 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. If you have rushed sealant from a window installation and draughts coming in around windows and doors, we can put it right.

Somewhere as small as Empshott, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
  • Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked
  • Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
  • Look round the frames every year or so

Check the drainage slots in the frames aren’t blocked, so rain drains out rather than building up at the sealant.

Leaks usually show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.

Why act early in Empshott

Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun is not easy, especially on upper floors. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Empshott, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

How the visit works

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. For a village or hamlet like Empshott, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
  2. We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
  3. Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
  4. A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
  5. Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice

When to call us in Empshott

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.

Look out for these signs:

  • Untidy mastic left by window fitters
  • Cold air getting in at the frame edge
  • A bead that doesn’t match the frame
  • Old mastic that has gone black or come away

For landlords with property near Liss station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

10 questions to ask before you book

Empshott homes and the weather

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

In the older streets around Church of the Holy Rood, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Empshott: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Liss station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Do you cover smaller places like Empshott?

Yes. Empshott is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

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.

Do you seal inside as well as outside?

Yes. Plenty of draughts come through the inside joint as well as the outside, so it can be worth sealing both.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.

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 you reach windows above the ground floor?

Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Let us know about access when you ask for a quote and we’ll plan for it.

How we quote for window mastic

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Access and height
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The rough size of the job
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email

There’s no standard price list. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
