About our window mastic in Mott's Mill

A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. A new joint stops the air getting through. Where the air is getting in through the window itself, we’ll say so. If you have gaps between the frame and the inside reveal and mastic that’s falling out in pieces, we can put it right, on composite doors, aluminium frames and patio & French doors alike.

In a village or hamlet like Mott's Mill, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

What affects the cost of window mastic

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access and height
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The type of sealant required
  • The number of rooms or windows

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Asking for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The address or postcode of the job

For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before we start.

Window mastic in Mott's Mill: local notes

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Groombridge Place (about 1.6 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Mott's Mill as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.

In the older streets around Church of St Thomas the Apostle, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Managing a site like Groombridge St Thomas' Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Surface by surface

Aluminium frames

Coated aluminium needs a compatible sealant and we avoid acetoxy silicones, which can react with some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.

uPVC windows

We clean the frame edge carefully so the plastic isn’t marked, then the new bead is laid against the frame and the wall.

Mott's Mill questions

Do you cover Mott's Mill for window mastic?

Yes, Mott's Mill is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.

Is Mott's Mill within the area you cover?

Yes. Mott's Mill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first.

How do I get a quote for window mastic in Mott's Mill?

We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before we start.

Can new window sealant be painted?

It depends on the sealant. Silicone isn’t paintable, but some hybrid sealants are. Mention any painting plans before any work starts.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.

What do you put in the joint?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll explain our choice.

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.

What we’re called out for in Mott's Mill

Frames are never completely still. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
  • Cold air getting in at the frame edge
  • Cracked sealant at the sill ends
  • A bead that does not match the frame

Rented homes near Eridge station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What the cure time is

Choosing a sealant specialist

Why deal with it now?

Getting a straight, even bead on an outside frame takes practice, especially on upper floors. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Mott's Mill, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Why book with us

  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Colour picked to suit the job
  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator

How to look after the new joints

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wash the frames with mild soapy water
  • Keep paint off silicone joints
  • Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
  • Repaint timber before it’s bare

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 email us.

Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.

What happens on the day

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. For a village or hamlet like Mott's Mill, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
  2. We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
  3. Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
  4. New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
  5. We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us about any water getting in
