How we handle window mastic in Lea Bridge
Colour matters on a frame. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. If you have old mastic that has gone black or come away and hard, cracked sealant around windows, we can help, on patio & French doors, timber windows & doors and uPVC windows alike.
London’s Victorian and Edwardian terraces were built with timber sash windows, and many still have them or their replacements. Whatever is in the opening now, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps the weather out.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Lea Bridge. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

What window mastic looks like in Lea Bridge
Historic houses like Sutton House (about 1 mile south) are a reminder that the area around Lea Bridge has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so check that before you book.
Managing a site like Southwold Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Lea Bridge is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Keep paint off silicone joints
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak, and if anything looks wrong, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Once wood has rotted, it needs repair before it can be sealed, so it pays to reseal before that happens.

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we’re called out for in Lea Bridge
Mastic ages in the weather. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.
Look out for any of the following:
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
If you let a flat or house near Clapton station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
What your quote should include
- Are they insured?
- What guarantee comes with the work
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first

Leave it or put it right?
Choosing the product is half the job. Interior caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t made for exterior frame joints. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Putting it right early is much less trouble for homes in Lea Bridge.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Why book with us
- More than 20 years in sealant work

Lea Bridge questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Clapton station?

Is Lea Bridge in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Lea Bridge is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can you do the inside joint as well?
Yes, we do both. Indoors, we seal between the frame and the plaster or reveal, using a paintable sealant if you want to decorate.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
