Windows and doors in Fields End
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.
If you live in an older home near St Alban's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Managing a site like John F Kennedy Catholic School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Fields End: your questions answered
Is Fields End within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is Fields End in your area for window mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Fields End is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can resealing stop a draught around my window?
Yes, if the air is getting in around the frame. If it’s coming through the window seals, we will tell you.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
The process
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Somewhere as small as Fields End, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Do you need window mastic in Fields End?
Joints that are too thin or too deep fail early. A skim of sealant over a wide gap soon tears, and a gap filled solid can’t flex. Backing rod sets the right depth.
Look out for these signs:
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
For landlords with property near Hemel Hempstead station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Why it’s worth doing now in Fields End
Resealing frames is a short job: the visit takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. In a small place like Fields End, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.

- Over 20 years’ experience
- A 12-month guarantee on all work

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.

What else we do in Fields End
How the job changes by surface
Window sills
Stone and concrete sills have their own joints, including the one between the sill and the frame above. We seal those with a sealant suited to masonry.
Timber windows & doors
Where timber has rotted at the joint, it needs repairing first. We will point out any rot we find, as that’s a job for a joiner.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
How we quote for window mastic
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Working hours on commercial sites
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Where the property is
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The type of property
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
