Window mastic near Holloway

Window mastic for homes and businesses in Holloway

If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. A new joint stops the air getting through. Where the air is getting in through the window itself, we will say so. We’re often asked to deal with draughts coming in around windows and doors and leaking joints at the ends of sills, across aluminium frames, patio & French doors and composite doors.

In a village or hamlet like Holloway, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Should I try it myself first?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Surface by surface

Composite doors

Draughts round the door leaf usually come from worn seals or adjustment, not the mastic. We seal the frame and let you know about anything else.

Patio & French doors

Heavy door frames can move more than windows. The sealant must cope with it, where a rigid one would crack.

What happens on the day

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere like Holloway needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
  2. Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
  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. Finally we tidy up and check each joint.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holloway

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.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Frames and glazing around Holloway

Historic houses like Harleyford Manor (about 2.7 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Holloway has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, 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.

Schools such as Burchetts Green CofE Infants' School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Furze Platt station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Signs you need window mastic in Holloway

Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, and a gap opens along one edge.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Hard, cracked sealant around windows
  • A bead that doesn’t match the frame
  • Rushed sealant from a window installation
  • Cracked sealant at the sill ends

In the older streets around Saint John the Evangelist, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Do you cover smaller places like Holloway?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Will resealing my frames help with draughts?

If the draught is coming in around the frame, yes. If it’s coming through the window seals, we’ll tell you.

How long before the joint can be used?

How do I get a quote for window mastic in Holloway?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.

Is the new sealant paintable?

What information do you need?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Broken hinges, locks or handles
  • Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
  • Soft or decayed wood in the frame

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Where we work in Holloway

  • Aluminium frames

Why deal with it now?

If you are painting or rendering, reseal at the same time. A clean new bead makes new paint or render look finished, and it’s easier while the walls are being worked on anyway. Older cottages and farmhouses around Holloway can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.
