About our window mastic in Little Holbury
From a single sill to a whole house of windows, you’ll get a clear quote before work begins. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the number of frames and any access details. We work on composite doors, patio & French doors and aluminium frames, and people most often call us about hard, cracked sealant around windows and gaps where the sill meets the wall.
Around Little Holbury, 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What happens if it’s left?
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun is not easy, especially upstairs. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Little Holbury, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Signs you need window mastic in Little Holbury
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it’s rigid, every bit of frame movement pulls at it, and a gap opens along one edge.
People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
Schools such as Manor Church of England Infant School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- What insurance they hold
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether VAT is included
When it isn’t the sealant
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. Sealant will not put right:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- A frame that has rotted at the joint

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Little Holbury and across Hampshire. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like Little Holbury, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- All the failed sealant is cut away.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- 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
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Don’t use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
Check the drainage slots in the frames are not blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.
Draughts get worse, not better. As the old mastic shrinks further, more air gets through, and a cold room gets colder. Resealing closes it.

Frames and glazing around Little Holbury
Little Holbury is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

Your questions about window mastic in Little Holbury
I let a flat near Netley station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Does living near the coast affect window mastic in Little Holbury?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Tell us what needs doing and where. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Do you guarantee window mastic?
Yes. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we are ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
Most silicone cannot be painted. If you plan to paint, tell us first and we can use a paintable sealant where it suits the joint.
