Window mastic in Little Chart Forstal, done properly
A window frame and the wall around it expand and shrink at different rates. Heat and cold make frames grow and shrink against brick or render that hardly moves. So the sealant has to stretch and recover, which is why we use a low-modulus product. If you have water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and old mastic that has gone black or come away, we can put it right.
Around Little Chart Forstal, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What window mastic looks like in Little Chart Forstal
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 Godinton House (about 2.2 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Little Chart Forstal as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
In the older streets around St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. Rented homes near Charing station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

What the job involves on each surface
uPVC windows
Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. It comes out, deep gaps get backing rod and the joint is resealed.
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. Those corners get the most care.
How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Somewhere as small as Little Chart Forstal, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
