Window mastic in New Milton, done properly
Some gaps around frames are far deeper than they look. Filling it with sealant alone leaves a joint that cannot move properly, so we fit backing rod to set the right depth. That way the new bead bonds to the frame and the wall only. We work on window sills, patio & French doors and timber windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are leaking joints at the ends of sills and gaps between the frame and the inside reveal.
Homes around New Milton range from older properties to newer houses, and their windows range just as widely. Each frame material needs the right sealant against the right wall.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Do you need window mastic in New Milton?
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- A bead that does not match the frame
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Arnewood School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

For window mastic in New Milton, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you will get a clear quote before we start.
Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep timber frames painted
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
Leaks usually show up in wet, windy weather, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
Window mastic in New Milton: local notes
New Milton is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on the mastic around window and door frames, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. With historic houses such as Highcliffe Castle (about 2.7 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around New Milton as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Rented homes near New Milton 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. In the older streets around Parish Church of St Magdalene, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

New Milton: your questions answered
Does living near the coast affect window mastic in New Milton?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Will you come out to New Milton?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can resealing stop a draught around my window?
If the draught is coming in around the frame, yes. If it’s coming through the window seals, we’ll tell you.
How long before the joint can be used?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Can you do upstairs windows?
Yes, where it’s safe. Higher or awkward frames may need extra access, and we’ll confirm what’s needed.
How the job changes by surface
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so we pay close attention there.
Composite doors
Draughts round the door leaf normally come from worn seals or adjustment, not the mastic. We seal the frame and let you know about anything else.
What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Parking around New Milton is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
