How we quote for window mastic
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The amount of work
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Access and height
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The rough size of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the property is
To get a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.
Window mastic in Laleham
Most frames have an outside joint and an inside one. Outside, the mastic keeps rain out; inside, the joint between frame and plaster stops draughts and tidies the reveal. We seal one or both, depending on what’s needed. We work on composite doors, window sills and aluminium frames, and people most often call us about gaps between the frame and the inside reveal and a bead that doesn’t match the frame.
In smaller places like Laleham, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. Each frame material needs the right sealant against the right wall.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Landlord and commercial work in Laleham
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Don’t paint over the silicone
Keep the new mastic undisturbed while it cures, following the cure time we give you. Don’t point a pressure washer at the joints.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
What happens if it’s left?
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: it takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. In an older home around Laleham, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Surface by surface
Patio & French doors
Door frames take knocks and movement every time the doors are used. A flexible sealant copes with that without cracking.
Composite doors
Draughts round the door leaf generally come from worn seals or adjustment, not the mastic. We seal the frame and let you know about anything else.
Laleham homes and the weather
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Botleys Mansion (about 3.4 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Laleham as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Managing a site like Laleham CofE VA Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Rented homes near Staines station change hands often, and sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. For a job in Laleham, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- All the failed sealant is cut away.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
