Window mastic for homes and businesses in North Moreton
Every window and door frame has a gap around it, and mastic is what closes it. Once that seal fails, wind and rain find the gap. Our applicators cut it out and replace it with a flexible, weatherproof sealant. Common call-outs are for black, perished sealant on frames and draughty joints inside around the window, across patio & French doors, window sills and timber windows & doors.
In a village or hamlet like North Moreton, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

North Moreton questions
Is North Moreton within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Didcot Parkway station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Can you reach windows above the ground floor?
Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Let us know about access when you ask for a quote and we will plan for it.
How long does it take to reseal the windows on a house?
A handful of frames is a short visit, while a whole house takes longer. You will get a timescale with the quote.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
Often, yes. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and sealing the inside and outside joints closes that path.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Surface by surface
Patio & French doors
Door frames take knocks and movement every time the doors are used. The sealant must cope with it, where a rigid one would crack.
Timber windows & doors
Wood swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it dries, so the joint must stay flexible. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
Timber frames need their paint kept up, since wood that gets wet swells and shrinks more. Paint up to the joint, not over the silicone.
Leaks generally show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.
What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Somewhere like North Moreton 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.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
Ask for a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.

When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- A sash or casement that will not close properly
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Windows and doors in North Moreton
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Brightwell Manor (about 1.2 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around North Moreton 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.
If you let a flat or house near Didcot Parkway station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as South Moreton Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

When to call us in North Moreton
Mastic ages in the weather. Sunlight dries the surface out, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Draughty joints inside around the window
Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
