Window mastic in Maxton, done properly
Around Maxton we seal all kinds of frames: uPVC, aluminium, timber and composite, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. We’re often asked to deal with gaps left after new windows were fitted and black, perished sealant on frames, on window sills, timber windows & doors and aluminium frames.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Maxton is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Questions from Maxton
Will you come out to Maxton?
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.
Is window mastic in a coastal place like Maxton any different?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels in Maxton.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How do I get a quote for window mastic in Maxton?
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. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

When to call us in Maxton
Frames are never completely still. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the masonry beside it stays put. A sealant that cannot keep up eventually tears.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
Managing a site like St Martin's School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Check the mastic once a year
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, for as long as we advise. Do not point a pressure washer at the joints.
A failed joint lets water into the wall a little at a time. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.

Windows and doors in Maxton
Maxton is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you let a flat or house near Dover Priory station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. In the older streets around St Martin's Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. For a village or hamlet like Maxton, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work
