Window mastic for Enslow homes and businesses

About our window mastic in Enslow

Colour matters on a frame. We can seal in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. We work on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and uPVC windows, and the jobs we see most are mastic that has split away from the wall and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door.

Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Enslow is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Enslow as everywhere else we work.

When to call us in Enslow

Mastic ages in the weather. Sunlight dries the surface out, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
  • Mastic that has split away from the wall
  • Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
  • Mastic that is falling out in pieces

For landlords with property near Tackley station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Before booking anyone

  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • Whether VAT is included
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • How hidden problems are handled

How to choose a mastic man

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

FAQs for Enslow

Will you come out to Enslow?

Yes. Enslow 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.

I let a flat near Tackley station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

What does window mastic cost?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, with our 12-month guarantee. A yearly look at the joints helps them last.

When is the sealant fully cured?

It depends on the product and the conditions. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.

How long will my window job take?

That depends on the number of frames, how they’re reached and the state of the old mastic. We’ll tell you how long your job needs when we quote.

Is it worth trying it myself?

That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

When something else is needed

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • A frame that has rotted at the joint
  • Condensation trapped between the panes
  • Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

What we seal

  • Window sills
  • uPVC windows
  • Timber windows & doors
  • Patio & French doors
  • Composite doors
  • Aluminium frames

The process

Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like Enslow, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
  2. The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
  3. Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
  4. New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
  5. Every joint is checked before we leave.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

What window mastic looks like in Enslow

With historic houses such as Blenheim Palace (about 3 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Enslow as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

Homes close to Church of Holy Cross include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bletchingdon Parochial Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

What the job involves on each surface

Timber windows & doors

Older timber windows in stone or brick can suit sand mastic rather than modern sealant. We’ll tell you which suits your home.

uPVC windows

Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so the joint needs a low-modulus sealant that stays flexible. White is the usual colour, with brown, anthracite grey and black for coloured frames.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
