Window mastic for homes and businesses in Merton Abbey
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. Resealing that joint can make a room feel noticeably less draughty and quietens the whistle on windy days. Where the air is getting in through the window itself, we’ll say so. We work on window sills, composite doors and aluminium frames, and the jobs we see most are a bead that doesn’t match the frame and cold air getting in at the frame edge.
From mansion-block windows to modern glazing in new flats, London has every kind of frame. Over the years, the sealant around them shrinks, cracks and pulls away, letting in draughts and water.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

When it is not the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Do you need window mastic in Merton Abbey?
Frames are never completely still. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
The most common problems we see are:
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
As a London address, Merton Abbey can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
Before you book anyone
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What preparation is included
- Are they insured?
- What the cure time is
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of old mastic looks like an easy fix, but it will not grip old, dirty sealant. It soon lifts and the leak carries on behind it. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
- Wipe condensation off the frames
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.
Windows and doors in Merton Abbey
In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so it’s worth checking before booking. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Managing a site like Haslemere Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Letting a property close to Haydons Road station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are in most cases. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

How the job changes by surface
Window sills
Sills catch the water running down the glass, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
uPVC windows
Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. It comes out, deep gaps get backing rod and the joint is resealed.
