About our window mastic in Marden Thorn

Every window and door frame has a gap around it, and mastic is what closes it. Once that seal fails, wind and rain find the gap. The old mastic is removed and the joint resealed with a flexible exterior sealant. We work on window sills, timber windows & doors and uPVC windows, and people most often call us about sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door.

In a village or hamlet like Marden Thorn, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.

Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.

FAQs for Marden Thorn

Do you cover Marden Thorn for window mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Marden Thorn is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Is Marden Thorn within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What sealant do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.

Can you do the inside joint as well?

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

Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?

Yes. Grey and black frames get grey or black sealant, and wood-effect frames usually suit brown.

Do you have insurance?

Yes, we are fully insured for every job we do.

Can I paint over the new sealant?

That depends on the product. Some hybrid sealants can be painted; silicone cannot. Mention any painting plans before we start.

Different surfaces, different methods

Patio & French doors

Heavy door frames can move more than windows. The sealant must cope with it.

Aluminium frames

Aluminium moves with heat, and the frames are often slimmer than uPVC. A neat, narrow bead in a colour to match keeps the clean look.

What affects the quote in Marden Thorn

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Access and height
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Any working-time requirements on site

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What we need to know

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.

How to look after the new joints

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Clear any debris from frame drain holes
  • Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
  • Keep jet washers away from the mastic
  • Keep timber frames painted

Check the drainage slots in the frames aren’t blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.

On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Once wood has rotted, it needs repair before it can be sealed, so it pays to reseal before that happens.

Why it’s worth doing now in Marden Thorn

A quick bead over the top of old mastic looks like an easy fix, but it won’t grip old, dirty sealant. It soon lifts and the leak carries on behind it. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around Marden Thorn can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

How the visit works

At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house, depending on how much there is to do. For a village or hamlet like Marden Thorn, 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. We check how each frame can be reached safely.
  2. All the failed sealant is cut away.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
  4. Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
  5. We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
