Why it’s worth doing now in Finchampstead

Failed mastic is not a reason to replace sound windows. If the frames and glass are in good order, resealing the joints is often all that’s needed. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we’ll tell you. In a small place like Finchampstead, 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 depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Why choose Mr Mastic in Finchampstead

  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • A choice of colours where the product allows

About our window mastic in Finchampstead

A window frame and the wall around it expand and shrink at different rates. Heat and cold make frames grow and shrink against brick or render that hardly moves. That’s why the joint needs a flexible, low-modulus sealant rather than something rigid. If you’re dealing with cracked sealant at the sill ends and gaps left after new windows were fitted, we can help, whatever the surface.

Homes in small places like Finchampstead often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

The process

We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Somewhere as small as Finchampstead, access is often the only tricky part. 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. Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
  4. We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
  5. We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Related advice

Should I try it myself first?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Finchampstead homes and the weather

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.

Rented homes near Crowthorne station change hands often, and renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. Homes close to Church of St James include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Finchampstead CofE VA Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

How many windows can you do in a day?

How much does window mastic cost in Finchampstead?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.

Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?

Yes. The outside joint keeps the weather out, and the inside joint stops draughts and finishes the reveal. We can do either or both.

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.

How the job changes by surface

Composite doors

Front doors take the weather head on, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. Those corners get the most care.

Aluminium frames

Aluminium moves with heat, and the frames are often slimmer than uPVC. A tidy bead in anthracite grey, black or a matching colour keeps the clean look.

When something else is needed

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • A frame that has rotted at the joint
  • Condensation trapped between the panes
  • Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
