Window mastic in Jersey Farm, done properly
There are two joints on most windows. The external joint is the weather seal; the internal joint closes the gap to the plaster and stops draughts. Either or both can be done. We work on timber windows & doors, patio & French doors and aluminium frames, and the jobs we see most are gaps between the frame and the inside reveal and sealant in the wrong colour for the frame.
In smaller places like Jersey Farm, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. The right sealant depends on the frame and on what it sits in.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Jersey Farm questions
I let a flat near St Albans station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can you do window mastic in Jersey Farm?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Jersey Farm is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Can you match the sealant to my frames?
Yes. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can you do upstairs windows?
Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Tell us about access when you get in touch so we can plan the job.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
It depends on the sealant. Silicone is not paintable, but some hybrid sealants are. Mention any painting plans before any work starts.
Jersey Farm homes and the weather
Historic houses like Childwickbury Manor (about 2.3 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Jersey Farm has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. 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.
Letting a property close to St Albans station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. For an older house near a landmark such as Saint Mary's, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What affects the cost of window mastic
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The product the joint needs
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether the work is at height
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it has been sealed before
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job.
The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, and the area is left clean. Parking around Jersey Farm is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in

Related advice
How the job changes by surface
Timber windows & doors
Wood swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it dries, so the joint must stay flexible. The paint or stain needs to be sound where the sealant meets it.
Patio & French doors
Water at the foot of a door frame is not always the mastic: blocked drain slots, worn brush seals and threshold details can let water in too. We look for the cause first.
Why it’s worth doing now in Jersey Farm
Getting a straight, even bead on an outside frame takes practice, especially on upper floors. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. In an older home around Jersey Farm, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
- Keep paint off silicone joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
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.
When to call us in Jersey Farm
Every frame moves through the day. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. A sealant that can’t keep up eventually tears.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Black, perished sealant on frames
If you look after a building such as Skyswood Primary & Nursery School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
