Window mastic in Horsham, done properly

A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. Resealing that joint can make a room feel noticeably less draughty and quietens the whistle on windy days. Where the air is getting in through the window itself, we’ll say so. If you’re dealing with a bead that doesn’t match the frame and leaking joints at the ends of sills, we can help, on composite doors, uPVC windows and window sills alike.

In Horsham, windows range from older timber frames to modern uPVC and aluminium. The mastic around all of them ages, and it’s normally the first thing to let the weather in.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

When to call us in Horsham

Water runs down the glass onto the sill, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
  • Untidy mastic left by window fitters
  • Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
  • Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame

For an older house near a landmark such as Hope Chapel, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Are they insured?
  • The length of the guarantee
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it

How to choose a mastic man

Honest limits

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:

  • Condensation trapped between the panes
  • A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
  • A frame that has rotted at the joint

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Window sills
  • Aluminium frames
  • Timber windows & doors
  • uPVC windows
  • Composite doors
  • Patio & French doors

FAQs for Horsham

Is Horsham in your area for window mastic?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Horsham is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

Is window mastic in Horsham guaranteed?

All our work, in Horsham and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.

Should I try DIY first?

You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.

Can you reach windows above the ground floor?

Yes, if safe access is possible. For high or awkward windows, we will tell you what access is needed.

Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?

Yes. Grey and black frames get grey or black sealant, and wood-effect frames usually suit brown.

How to look after the new joints

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
  • Do not use solvent cleaners on the joint
  • Keep jet washers away from the mastic
  • Check the mastic once a year

Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, following the cure time we give you. Keep jet washers away from the frames.

Leaks usually show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.

Window mastic in Horsham: local notes

Why it’s worth doing now in Horsham

Running fresh sealant over the old joint is tempting, but new sealant can’t bond to old, crumbling mastic. It peels before long, and water still gets in behind. The old mastic has to come out. For businesses in Horsham, a room closed because of a leak or mould costs more than the sealant, so failing joints are best replaced on a planned basis.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before we start.

Why Horsham clients choose us

  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

How the visit works

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins.

  1. We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
  2. The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
