Window & door mastic in Enborne Row, West Berkshire
We cover Enborne Row for mastic around window and door frames, sills and patio doors. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Black, perished sealant on frames
How we handle window mastic in Enborne Row
There are two joints on most windows. The external joint is the weather seal; inside, the joint between frame and plaster stops draughts and tidies the reveal. We seal one or both, depending on what’s needed. We’re often asked to deal with mastic that’s falling out in pieces and draughty joints inside around the window, across composite doors, aluminium frames and window sills.
Somewhere as small as Enborne Row, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Enborne Row 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. With historic houses such as Stargroves (about 2.6 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Enborne Row as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Managing a site like Enborne C.E. Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as St Luke Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. For landlords with property near Newbury station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How the job changes by surface
Patio & French doors
Not every patio door leak is a mastic problem: blocked drain slots, worn brush seals and threshold details can let water in too. We check before we reseal.
Aluminium frames
Aluminium needs a sealant that bonds to coated metal, and acetoxy silicones aren’t used, as they can attack some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.
For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Enborne Row and across West Berkshire. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Letting agents and landlords in Enborne Row can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Keep paint off silicone joints
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Look out for the warning signs: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. Any of these is worth a call.

How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Enborne Row needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
