Do you need window mastic in Nettleden?
Timber windows bring their own problems. Old mastic gets painted over and cracks under the paint, and timber moves with moisture as well as temperature.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- A bead that does not match the frame
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
Homes close to Church of St Lawrence include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included

FAQs for Nettleden
Is Nettleden within the area you cover?
Yes, Nettleden is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Berkhamsted station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Yes, in most cases. Mention the frame colour when you ask for a quote and we will use the nearest match.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
Not if it’s silicone. We choose the product with your decorating in mind, so mention it when you book.
What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Condensation trapped between the panes
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work in Nettleden
- Patio & French doors
- uPVC windows
- Window sills
- Aluminium frames
- Composite doors
- Timber windows & doors
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
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.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Keep timber frames painted
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so it pays to reseal before that happens.

What the job involves on each surface
Window sills
The end joints of a sill tend to fail before the rest. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Aluminium frames
Aluminium needs a sealant that bonds to coated metal and we avoid acetoxy silicones, which can react with some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.
Nettleden homes and the weather
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

How the visit works
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Somewhere as small as Nettleden, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
