Questions from Itchen Abbas
Is Itchen Abbas in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Itchen Abbas is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords with property near Winchester station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
Often, yes. The gap between frame and wall is a common source of draughts, and sealing the inside and outside joints closes that path.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
How long will my window job take?
That depends on the number of frames, how they’re reached and the state of the old mastic. We’ll tell you how long your job needs when we quote.
Window mastic in Itchen Abbas, done properly
A window frame and the wall around it expand and shrink at different rates. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. That is why the joint needs a flexible, low-modulus sealant rather than something rigid. If you have water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and cold air getting in at the frame edge, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Itchen Abbas, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What else we do in Itchen Abbas
When it is not the sealant
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Faulty window hardware
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Composite doors
- Aluminium frames
- uPVC windows
- Patio & French doors
- Timber windows & doors
- Window sills
What the job involves on each surface
Timber windows & doors
Older timber windows in stone or brick can suit sand mastic rather than modern sealant. We can talk through the options.
Window sills
Masonry sills can have joints where water gets in, and the joint under the frame can let rain run behind. Those are sealed with a product suited to stone or concrete.
How we quote for window mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The amount of work
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any mould that needs treating
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The type of property
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details.
Why act early in Itchen Abbas
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun is not easy, especially on upper floors. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Around Itchen Abbas, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Advice
Window mastic in Itchen Abbas: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you live in an older home near Church of St John the Baptist, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you let a flat or house near Winchester station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets. Managing a site like Itchen Abbas Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Don’t use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
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. If you notice one, it’s time to get the joint looked at.
