Signs you need window mastic in Hawkenbury
Joints that are too thin or too deep fail early. A thin smear across a wide gap has nothing to it, and a gap filled solid cannot flex. That’s what backing rod is for.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
- Draughty joints inside around the window
In and around Hawkenbury, as anywhere, good window mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Window mastic in Hawkenbury
Behind a thin line of old mastic there’s sometimes a deep void. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that can’t flex, so we fit backing rod to set the right depth. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. We work on window sills, aluminium frames and uPVC windows, and the jobs we see most are gaps where the sill meets the wall and mastic that has split away from the wall.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Hawkenbury is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.
What we need to know
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Roughly how big the job is

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work.
What the job involves on each surface
Window sills
Every drop off the glass ends up on the sill, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. They’re cut out and resealed with exterior sealant.
uPVC windows
We clean the frame edge carefully so the plastic is not marked, then the new bead is laid against the frame and the wall and tooled smooth.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
