FAQs for Letchmore Heath
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Radlett station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Letchmore Heath?
Yes, Letchmore Heath is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you seal inside as well as outside?
Yes, we do both. Inside, the joint between frame and plaster is sealed neatly.
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 send us an email with a short description of the job.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, where it’s safe. Higher or awkward frames may need extra access, and we’ll confirm what’s needed.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Yes. Grey and black frames get grey or black sealant, and wood-effect frames generally suit brown.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Window mastic for homes and businesses in Letchmore Heath
Most frames have an outside joint and an inside one. The external joint is the weather seal; inside, the joint between frame and plaster stops draughts and tidies the reveal. Either or both can be done. We work on patio & French doors, window sills and uPVC windows, and common reasons people get in touch are hard, cracked sealant around windows and draughty joints inside around the window.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Letchmore Heath is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Windows and doors in Letchmore Heath
The South East is one of 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 High Elms Manor (about 3.5 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Letchmore Heath has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
If you let a flat or house near Radlett station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Fair Field Junior School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Homes close to Church of St John the Baptist include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

The process

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- 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.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Leave it or put it right?
Choosing the product is half the job. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t designed for outside joints that move. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. In a small place like Letchmore Heath, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Colour picked to suit the job
- Over 20 years’ experience
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
What the job involves on each surface
Aluminium frames
Coated aluminium needs a compatible sealant, and acetoxy silicones are not used, as they can attack some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.
Patio & French doors
Door frames take knocks and movement every time the doors are used. The sealant must cope with it, where a rigid one would crack.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- A sash or casement that won’t close properly
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Wipe condensation off the frames
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Keep timber frames painted
Most silicone sealants will not take paint, so if you’re planning to paint the frames or walls, tell us beforehand. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. Often the first sign is a damp patch inside or flaking paint on the reveal. Early resealing stops it reaching that point.
