Window & door mastic in Maplescombe, Kent
Professional window mastic in and around Maplescombe, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a one-year guarantee.
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
Window mastic in Maplescombe
Some gaps around frames are far deeper than they look. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that can’t flex, so deep gaps get backing rod first. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. Typical jobs include white mastic on grey or black frames and draughts coming in around windows and doors, across composite doors, patio & French doors and window sills.
Somewhere as small as Maplescombe, 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.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Why it’s worth doing now in Maplescombe
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially upstairs. 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 Maplescombe can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
What you get with us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild

When to call us in Maplescombe
Sills take more water than any other part of a window, so the sill ends and the joint below the frame are common leak points. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Lullingstone Castle, about 1.9 miles west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Maplescombe.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether VAT is included
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Are they insured?
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as Maplescombe, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking each window and door with you.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Cure times vary by product. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
Can I do it myself?
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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Window mastic in Maplescombe: local notes
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. Historic houses like Lullingstone Castle (about 1.9 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Maplescombe has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
