Window mastic in Godstone, done properly
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. If you are dealing with cold air getting in at the frame edge and untidy mastic left by window fitters, we can help, on timber windows & doors, aluminium frames and uPVC windows alike.
In a village or hamlet like Godstone, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Your questions about window mastic in Godstone

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
What we are called out for in Godstone
Water runs down the glass onto the sill, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. When that sealant fails, water gets into the wall or under the frame.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
Managing a site like Godstone Village School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before you book
- What insurance they hold
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What guarantee comes with the work
How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Somewhere as small as Godstone, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Related advice
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 matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Towns and villages near Godstone
What else we do in Godstone
Godstone homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Titsey Place (about 4.1 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Godstone as well as newer homes. In older buildings, 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, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. Rented homes near Godstone station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
How the job changes by surface
uPVC windows
Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. It comes out, deep gaps get backing rod and the joint is resealed.
Window sills
Sills catch the water running down the glass, so the sill ends and the joint under the frame are vital. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Keep paint off silicone joints
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
Leaks usually show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
