Window mastic for homes and businesses in Hillesden
The mastic around a window or door seals the gap between the frame and the wall. When it cracks, hardens or pulls away, draughts and rain get in. The old mastic is removed and the joint resealed with a flexible exterior sealant. Common call-outs are for rain getting in at the frame or under the sill and draughty joints inside around the window, on window sills, timber windows & doors and uPVC windows.
Somewhere as small as Hillesden, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Windows and doors in Hillesden
With historic houses such as Claydon House (about 3 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Hillesden as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Around Hillesden, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
- Faulty window hardware
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Composite doors
- Window sills
- uPVC windows
- Timber windows & doors
- Aluminium frames
- Patio & French doors
Surface by surface
Composite doors
An exposed front door gets wind-driven rain. We pay most attention there.
Timber windows & doors
Timber moves with moisture as well as heat, so the joint must stay flexible. The paint or stain needs to be sound where the sealant meets it.
Leave it or put it right?
Failed mastic is not a reason to replace sound windows. If the frames and glass are in good order, resealing the joints is often all that is needed. Problems with the glass or gaskets are for a window company, and we will say so. Around Hillesden, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
Signs to watch for: cracks in the mastic, gaps you can see light through, damp on the reveal or mould around the inside of the frame. Any of these is worth a call.
The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Somewhere as small as Hillesden, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
