Window mastic in Lye Green

About our window mastic in Lye Green

Homes in Lye Green have every kind of window: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. If you have untidy mastic left by window fitters and white mastic on grey or black frames, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Around Lye Green, 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.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?

Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially on upper floors. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Older cottages and farmhouses around Lye Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.

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.

DIY versus a professional finish

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Lye Green: your questions answered

Is Lye Green within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Berkhamsted station?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.

Which products do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.

How much does window mastic cost in Lye Green?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

Do you work on first-floor windows?

Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Tell us about access when you get in touch and we’ll plan for it.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?

Yes. The outside joint keeps the weather out, and the inside joint stops draughts and finishes the reveal. We do one or both.

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Keep timber frames painted
  • Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
  • Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
  • Check the mastic once a year

A yearly look round the frames is enough. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

A failed joint lets water into the wall a little at a time. Often the first sign is a damp patch inside or flaking paint on the reveal. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.

What affects the cost of window mastic

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Access and height
  • The type of sealant required
  • The amount of work

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Asking for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.

How the visit works

You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Lye Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
  2. We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
  3. Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
  4. A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
  5. Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.

How to prepare

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

What window mastic looks like in Lye Green

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Chenies Manor House (about 3.8 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Lye Green as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.

For an older house near a landmark such as St George's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you look after a building such as Brushwood Junior School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Berkhamsted station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
