Window mastic for homes and businesses in Hungerford
Most frames have an outside joint and an inside one. The external joint is the weather seal; the internal joint closes the gap to the plaster and stops draughts. We seal one or both, depending on what’s needed. If you have cracked sealant at the sill ends and rushed sealant from a window installation, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Hungerford, 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What affects the quote in Hungerford
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether the work is at height
- How many areas need sealing
- When we can work, for business premises
- The size of the job
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The type of property
- How we’d reach the joints
If you are in Hungerford and need window mastic, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and you will get a clear quote before work begins.
Why deal with it now?
Once mastic fails, rain can get between the frame and the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. Resealing now is a small job by comparison. Around Hungerford, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Questions from Hungerford
Is Hungerford within the area you cover?
Yes. Hungerford is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is Hungerford in your area for window mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Hungerford is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once.
Can you do the inside joint as well?
Yes. Indoors, we seal between the frame and the plaster or reveal, using a paintable sealant if you want to decorate.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, where it’s safe. Higher or awkward frames may need extra access, and we will confirm what’s needed.
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
Keep the new mastic undisturbed while it cures, following the cure time we give you. Don’t point a pressure washer at the joints.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Early resealing stops it reaching that point.
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. For a village or hamlet like Hungerford, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Landlord and commercial work in Hungerford
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What sealant work cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Faulty window hardware
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Window mastic in Hungerford: local notes
