When to call us in Gold Street
A lot of older mastic was never designed to stay flexible. Once it’s rigid, every bit of frame movement pulls at it, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
Schools such as Cobham Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

What the job involves on each surface
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on. Those corners get the most care.
Aluminium frames
Aluminium needs a sealant that bonds to coated metal and we avoid acetoxy silicones, which can react with some metals. We use a neutral-cure product.
Gold Street homes and the weather
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Cobham College (about 0.6 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Gold Street as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary's Room, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Letting a property close to Sole Street station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Do not aim a pressure washer at the joints
Check the drainage slots in the frames are not blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.
Water trapped behind a failed joint can start rot in timber frames and sills. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so early resealing is worth it.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
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. Everything old must be removed first.
The process
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house in most cases. Somewhere like Gold Street needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Do you remove the old sealant?

Can you do the inside joint as well?
Yes, we do both. Indoors, we seal between the frame and the plaster or reveal.
