About our window mastic in Little Easton
A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. Resealing that joint can make a room feel noticeably less draughty. Where the air is getting in through the window itself, we’ll say so. We work on composite doors, uPVC windows and aluminium frames, and people most often call us about cracked internal joints between frame and plaster and leaking joints at the ends of sills.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Little Easton is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Windows and doors in Little Easton
With historic houses such as Horham Hall (about 3.5 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Little Easton 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. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Rented homes near Stansted Airport 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. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Helena Romanes School and Sixth Form Centre, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
Little Easton is about 8 miles east of Bishop's Stortford, in Essex.

Little Easton is one of 644 towns and villages in Essex where we work. Chelmsford is on our list too, about 12 miles from Little Easton.

When to call us in Little Easton
On timber frames, paint and putty build up around the joint. Old mastic gets painted over and cracks under the paint, and timber moves with moisture as well as temperature.
The most common problems we see are:
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
In the older streets around Church of St Mary the Virgin, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

The process
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Somewhere as small as Little Easton, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Little Easton questions
Do you cover Little Easton for window mastic?
Yes, Little Easton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you work for landlords with property near Stansted Airport station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Normally, yes. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we will use the nearest match.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
Silicone generally won’t take paint. Let us know beforehand, and we’ll use a paintable product where it suits.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What affects the cost of window mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- The size of the job
- Which sealant suits the joint
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The rough size of the job
Every job is quoted individually. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
Keep the new mastic undisturbed while it cures, for as long as we advise. Keep jet washers away from the frames.
Leaks generally show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
Why act early in Little Easton
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun is not easy, especially on upper floors. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Older cottages and farmhouses around Little Easton can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
