- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Window mastic in Little Stanmore, done properly
Most frames have an outside joint and an inside one. Outside, the mastic keeps rain out; the internal joint closes the gap to the plaster and stops draughts. Either or both can be done. We work on patio & French doors, timber windows & doors and composite doors, and the jobs we see most are gaps left after new windows were fitted and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door.
Many London homes are flats, with windows high above the street. In a converted house or block, the lease usually says who is responsible for the windows, so it’s worth checking before booking.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Little Stanmore and everywhere else we cover.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Frames and glazing around Little Stanmore
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so it’s worth checking before booking.
Homes close to Church of St Lawrence include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. If you let a flat or house near Mill Hill Broadway station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

How the job changes by surface
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. We pay most attention there.
uPVC windows
uPVC expands and contracts noticeably with temperature, so we use a flexible, low-modulus sealant. We match white, brown, anthracite grey and black frames.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Check the mastic once a year
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
- Do not paint over the silicone
- 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.
Water trapped behind a failed joint can start rot in timber frames and sills. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so early resealing is worth it.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any tricky access

Common problems we fix in Little Stanmore
Timber windows bring their own problems. Mastic painted over many times cracks with the paint, and timber moves with moisture as well as temperature.
The most common problems we see are:
- A bead that does not match the frame
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
Schools such as Krishna Avanti Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Is VAT in the price?
- Which colour the sealant will be
