Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Keep paint off silicone joints
- Check the mastic once a year
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
A failed joint lets water into the wall a little at a time. Often the first sign is a damp patch inside or flaking paint on the reveal. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.

What else we do in King Street
Do you need window mastic in King Street?
Joints that are too thin or too deep fail early. A thin smear across a wide gap has nothing to it, while a joint packed solid cannot stretch. Backing rod sets the right depth.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
Rented homes near Ingatestone 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.
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether VAT is included
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How long the guarantee is
Common questions in King Street
Do you cover smaller places like King Street?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Ingatestone station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover King Street and the rest of Essex, along with the rest of our area.
Can new window sealant be painted?
That depends on the product. Silicone isn’t paintable, but some hybrid sealants are. Tell us if you’re decorating and we’ll choose accordingly.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Do you guarantee window mastic?
Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we are ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, if safe access is possible. For high or awkward windows, we will tell you what access is needed.
How we quote for window mastic
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Why it’s worth doing now in King Street
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. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. In a small place like King Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before we start.
Why choose Mr Mastic in King Street
- We are fully insured
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Colour agreed with you before we start
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

Frames and glazing around King Street
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Ingatestone Hall (about 5 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around King Street 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.
If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. Managing a site like Blackmore Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
