How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Lagness, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
About our window mastic in Lagness
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 deep gaps get backing rod first. That way the new bead bonds to the frame and the wall only. Common call-outs are for sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and draughty joints inside around the window, on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and composite doors.
Around Lagness, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Why it’s worth doing now in Lagness
If you’re painting or rendering, reseal at the same time. A clean new bead makes new paint or render look finished. Older cottages and farmhouses around Lagness can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Do not paint over the silicone
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Early resealing stops it reaching that point.
What sealant work can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Faulty window hardware
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions from Lagness
Do you work for landlords with property near Bognor Regis station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Lagness?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we’re ARBOMaster approved applicators.
How long will my window job take?
The work takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Access and the amount of old mastic make the biggest difference.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Silicone generally will not take paint. If you plan to paint, tell us first and we can use a paintable sealant where it suits the joint.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
If the draught is coming in around the frame, yes. If it’s through the window’s own seals or a hinge, that’s a different fix, and we will say so.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Lagness homes and the weather
Lagness 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. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Homes close to Church of St Giles include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Schools such as Rose Green Junior School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Around Lagness
Typical jobs here are in homes near The Regis School and Avisford. For rail, the closest station is Bognor Regis station, about 2.5 miles east. Nearby you’ll also find Tote Copse Castle (2.9 miles north-east) and Bognor Regis Museum (2.5 miles south-east).
Do you need window mastic in Lagness?
Frames are never completely still. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. A sealant that can’t keep up eventually tears.
Look out for these signs:
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
For landlords with property near Bognor Regis station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
