About our window mastic in Laddingford
Every window and door frame has a gap around it, and mastic is what closes it. When it cracks, hardens or pulls away, draughts and rain get in. The old mastic is removed and the joint resealed with a flexible exterior sealant. We work on window sills, patio & French doors and aluminium frames, and common reasons people get in touch are mastic that’s falling out in pieces and gaps where the sill meets the wall.
Somewhere as small as Laddingford, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.

What affects the cost of window mastic
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many areas need sealing
- Access and height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
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 any work starts.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
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.
FAQs for Laddingford
Will you come out to Laddingford?
Yes. Laddingford is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. 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 Beltring station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
What does window mastic cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
In many cases. The gap between frame and wall is a common source of draughts, and resealing inside and out closes it.
Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?
Yes, in most cases. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we will match it as closely as we can.
Can you reach windows above the ground floor?
Yes, where they can be reached safely. Tell us about access when you get in touch and we’ll plan for it.
Different surfaces, different methods
Composite doors
Draughts round the door leaf usually come from worn seals or adjustment, not the mastic. We’ll tell you if that is what we find.
Timber windows & doors
On period timber windows, traditional sand mastic is sometimes the better choice. We can talk through the options.
Why deal with it now?
Not every sealant suits a window. Interior caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t made for exterior frame joints. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Laddingford, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house, depending on how much there is to do. For a village or hamlet like Laddingford, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
