Frames and glazing around Little Chart

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. With historic houses such as Godinton House (about 2.6 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Little Chart as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.

Homes close to St Mary include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. For landlords with property near Charing station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Window mastic for homes and businesses in Little Chart

Colour matters on a frame. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. If you are dealing with draughts coming in around windows and doors and a bead that doesn’t match the frame, we can put it right, on aluminium frames, uPVC windows and timber windows & doors alike.

Homes in small places like Little Chart often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Little Chart questions

Is Little Chart within the area you cover?

Yes, Little Chart is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you work for landlords with property near Charing station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Will new mastic stop draughts?

Yes, where the draught is at the frame edge. We check where the draught is before any work starts.

Is there any odour?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you’ll get one quote.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

Do you seal inside as well as outside?

Yes, we do both. Inside, the joint between frame and plaster is sealed neatly, using a paintable sealant if you want to decorate.

How much does window mastic cost in Little Chart?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Letting agents and landlords in Little Chart can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Don’t aim a pressure washer at the joints
  • Check the mastic once a year
  • Wash the frames with mild soapy water
  • Repaint timber before it’s bare

Most silicone sealants will not take paint, so mention any painting plans before we start. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.

A small gap around a frame only grows. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. A new joint closes it up.

When something else is needed

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Damp problems in the wall away from the window
  • A sash or casement that won’t close properly
  • A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we seal

  • Window sills
  • uPVC windows
  • Composite doors
  • Timber windows & doors
  • Aluminium frames
  • Patio & French doors

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

What affects the quote in Little Chart

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The size of the job

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Helping us quote

To make quoting easier, let us know:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that is easy.

How the visit works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. For a village or hamlet like Little Chart, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We check how each frame can be reached safely.
  2. Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
  4. Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
  5. We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.

How to prepare

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Surface by surface

Timber windows & doors

Where timber has rotted at the joint, it needs repairing first. If we find rot, we will tell you before going ahead, as that is a job for a joiner.

Aluminium frames

Coated aluminium needs a compatible sealant and we avoid acetoxy silicones, which can react with some metals. We use a neutral-cure product.
