About our window mastic in Fordingbridge
The new joint doesn’t have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. We work on composite doors, uPVC windows and window sills, and common reasons people get in touch are rain getting in at the frame or under the sill and a bead that doesn’t match the frame.
Houses in smaller places like Fordingbridge can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, so exposed windows and doors face the weather head on. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Fordingbridge
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, and a gap opens along one edge.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Fordingbridge Junior School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. In a smaller place like Fordingbridge, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

What else we do in Fordingbridge
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What window mastic looks like in Fordingbridge
Historic houses like Breamore House (about 2.8 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Fordingbridge has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In the older streets around St Mary's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

What we seal
- Window sills
- Timber windows & doors
- uPVC windows
- Aluminium frames
- Patio & French doors
- Composite doors
What the job involves on each surface
Window sills
The end joints of a sill tend to fail before the rest. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Patio & French doors
Patio and French doors have the longest joints on most houses. Most leaks start at the bottom corners, so they get particular care.
Quotes for window mastic in Fordingbridge
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The rough size of the job
- A few photos by email, if you can
- What’s wrong with the joints now
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, for as long as we advise. Keep jet washers away from the frames.
Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. A new joint closes it up.
