Window mastic for homes and businesses in Moulsford
Frames and walls do not move together. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. That’s why the joint needs a flexible, low-modulus sealant rather than something rigid. We work on composite doors, window sills and timber windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are rain getting in at the frame or under the sill and cracked internal joints between frame and plaster.
In a village or hamlet like Moulsford, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked
- Look round the frames every year or so
Keep the new mastic undisturbed while it cures, for as long as we advise. Don’t point a pressure washer at the joints.
Leaks usually show up in wet, windy weather, 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.
Moulsford: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Moulsford?
Yes. Moulsford is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Cholsey station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?
Usually, yes. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we will match it as closely as we can.
How many windows can you do in a day?
Allow anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Access and the amount of old mastic make the biggest difference.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.

Why act early in Moulsford
Not every sealant suits a window. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t designed for outside joints that move. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Moulsford, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why Moulsford clients choose us
- Fully insured
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
When something else is needed
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Condensation trapped between the panes
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Frames and glazing around Moulsford
Historic houses like Basildon Park (about 3.9 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Moulsford has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Schools such as Cranford House School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Baptist, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Letting a property close to Cholsey station? Then sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.
