How we handle window mastic in Limpsfield
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. We seal one or both, depending on what’s needed. Common call-outs are for rushed sealant from a window installation and gaps where the sill meets the wall, on window sills, composite doors and uPVC windows.
In a village or hamlet like Limpsfield, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Why act early in Limpsfield
A quick bead over the top of old mastic looks like an easy fix, but it will not grip old, dirty sealant. It peels before long, and water still gets in behind. The old mastic has to come out. Around Limpsfield, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Surface by surface
Timber windows & doors
Where timber has rotted at the joint, it needs repairing first. If we find rot, we’ll tell you before going ahead, as a joiner will need to deal with it.
uPVC windows
uPVC expands and contracts noticeably with temperature, so the joint needs a low-modulus sealant that stays flexible. White is the usual colour, with brown, anthracite grey and black for coloured frames.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Don’t paint over the silicone
Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, following the cure time we give you. Don’t point a pressure washer at the joints.
Look out for the warning signs: cracks in the mastic, gaps you can see light through, damp on the reveal or mould around the inside of the frame. If you notice one, it’s time to get the joint looked at.
Do you need window mastic in Limpsfield?
Mastic ages in the weather. Sunlight dries the surface out, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Not generally, if it’s silicone. We choose the product with your decorating in mind, so mention it when you book.
