Window mastic in Lordington
Whether it’s one leaking patio door or every frame on the house, you will get a clear quote before we start. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the number of frames and any access details. If you have a bead that doesn’t match the frame and rushed sealant from a window installation, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Lordington, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Window mastic in Lordington: local notes
With historic houses such as Warblington Castle (about 4.2 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Lordington 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. 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.
If you live in an older home near Racton Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. For landlords with property near Southbourne station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Common questions in Lordington
Is Lordington within the area you cover?
Yes, Lordington is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Southbourne station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
Can resealing stop a draught around my window?
If the draught is coming in around the frame, yes. If it’s coming through the window seals, we will tell you.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Silicone generally will not take paint. Let us know beforehand, and we’ll use a paintable product where it suits.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.
Different surfaces, different methods
uPVC windows
The frame is cleaned with a product that won’t harm the plastic, then the sealant goes in between frame and wall.
Aluminium frames
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Somewhere like Lordington needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
What we’re called out for in Lordington
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- White mastic on grey or black frames
Managing a site like Bourne Community College? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
Before booking anyone
- How long to leave it before use
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
Why deal with it now?
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: the visit takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. In a small place like Lordington, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.

When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
