How we quote for window mastic

There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:

  • The type of sealant required
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • The size of the job
  • When we can work, for business premises

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

What we need to know

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • The type of property
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • How we’d reach the joints

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

For anyone letting property in or around Hersham, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.

Your questions about window mastic in Hersham

Can you do window mastic in Hersham?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hersham is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.

Do you work for landlords with property near Walton-On-Thames station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.

Can you match the sealant to my frames?

Generally, yes. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we’ll match it as closely as we can.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.

Can you do upstairs windows?

Yes, where they can be reached safely. Let us know about access when you ask for a quote and we’ll plan for it.

Do I need to be at home?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need and we’ll quote it together.

Aftercare tips

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Look round the frames every year or so
  • Keep timber frames painted
  • Clear any debris from frame drain holes
  • Wipe condensation off the frames

Check the drainage slots in the frames aren’t blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.

Draughts get worse, not better. As the old mastic shrinks further, more air gets through, and heat escapes around the frame. A new joint closes it up.

How the job changes by 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.

Timber windows & doors

On period timber windows, traditional sand mastic is sometimes the better choice. We will tell you which suits your home.

How it works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. A visit to Hersham is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. First we look at every frame and agree the list.
  2. The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
  3. Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
  4. A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
  5. Every joint is checked before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice

Frames and glazing around Hersham

Historic houses like The Homewood (about 1.4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Hersham has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

If you look after a building such as Bell Farm Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Walton-On-Thames station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

What happens if it’s left?

A quick bead over the top of old mastic looks like an easy fix, but it won’t grip old, dirty sealant. It soon lifts and the leak carries on behind it. The old mastic has to come out. In an older home around Hersham, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What we are called out for in Hersham

Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it’s rigid, every bit of frame movement pulls at it, leaving a hairline gap down one side.

Look out for these signs:

  • Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
  • Draughty joints inside around the window
  • A bead that does not match the frame
  • Cracked sealant at the sill ends

In the older streets around Church of St Peter, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
