Window mastic in Mowshurst
A window frame and the wall around it expand and shrink at different rates. Heat and cold make frames grow and shrink against brick or render that hardly moves. So the sealant has to stretch and recover, which is why we use a low-modulus product. Typical jobs include draughts coming in around windows and doors and old mastic that has gone black or come away, across composite doors, window sills and uPVC windows.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Mowshurst is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Joints and surfaces we work on
- Timber windows & doors
- Aluminium frames
- uPVC windows
- Window sills
- Patio & French doors
- Composite doors
Surface by surface
Composite doors
Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, and the joint around it is sealed like a window. We match the colour to the frame.
uPVC windows
The frame is cleaned with a product that will not harm the plastic, then the sealant goes in between frame and wall and tooled smooth.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Mowshurst needs a little journey planning: 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.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- 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
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work

For landlords and businesses

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
What happens if it’s left?
Choosing the product is half the job. Interior caulk and bathroom silicone are not made for exterior frame joints. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. Around Mowshurst, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Mowshurst homes and the weather
Historic houses like Hever Castle (about 2.3 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Mowshurst has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. 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.
Rented homes near Edenbridge station change hands often, and sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. Homes close to Church of St Peter and St Paul include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Edenbridge Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
