Your questions about window mastic in Inner Avenue

Is window mastic in a coastal place like Inner Avenue any different?

Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.

Will you come out to Inner Avenue?

Yes. Inner Avenue is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

When is the sealant fully cured?

Cure times vary by product. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.

Can you do upstairs windows?

Yes, where they can be reached safely. Let us know about access when you ask for a quote so we can plan the job.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.

How much does window mastic cost in Inner Avenue?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.

How we handle window mastic in Inner Avenue

Behind a thin line of old mastic there’s sometimes a deep void. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that can’t flex, so we fit backing rod to set the right depth. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. If you are dealing with cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame and old mastic that has gone black or come away, we can put it right.

Around Inner Avenue, conservatories, garden rooms and patio doors are often part of the house. Those joints need the same attention as the main windows, and any older timber or sash windows need a sealant that suits them.

Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Keep jet washers away from the mastic
  • Do not paint over the silicone
  • Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
  • Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked

Silicone can’t generally be painted, so if you are planning to paint the frames or walls, tell us beforehand. We can use a paintable sealant where that matters.

Water trapped behind a failed joint can start rot in timber frames and sills. Once wood has rotted, it needs repair before it can be sealed, so early resealing is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Inner Avenue

Running fresh sealant over the old joint is tempting, but it will not grip old, dirty sealant. It soon lifts and the leak carries on behind it. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. In a smaller place like Inner Avenue, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Window mastic in Inner Avenue: local notes

Inner Avenue is within about 2 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. Historic houses like Southampton Tudor House and Garden (about 1.2 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Inner Avenue 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’s traditional sand mastic.

In the older streets around Saint Mary's, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Managing a site like Bevois Town Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Rented homes near St Denys station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Inner Avenue is about 1 mile west of Southampton, in Southampton. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Inner Avenue can book us for window mastic, old or new, large or small. The work is guaranteed for a year. 40 places in Southampton are on our list.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
  • Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
  • Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Can I do it myself?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What affects the cost of window mastic

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

Asking for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Where the property is

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details.

The process

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, depending on how much there is to do. Parking around Inner Avenue is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
  2. We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
  3. Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
  4. A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
  5. We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
