Windows and doors in Northchurch
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. With historic houses such as Cholesbury Manor House (about 3 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Northchurch as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

What sealant work cannot fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames from start to finish. In a smaller place like Northchurch, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- 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.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Common questions in Northchurch
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Berkhamsted station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Northchurch?
Yes, Northchurch is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How long before the joint can be used?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.
Can resealing stop a draught around my window?
In many cases. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and sealing the inside and outside joints closes that path.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
How we quote for window mastic
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The type of property
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you are ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What we are called out for in Northchurch
A lot of older mastic was never designed to stay flexible. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of Saint Mary, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
- What product goes in the joint
- How hidden problems are handled
Surface by surface
Window sills
Every drop off the glass ends up on the sill, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. They’re cut out and resealed with exterior sealant.
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. Most leaks start at the bottom corners, so they get particular care.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Check the mastic once a year
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, following the cure time we give you. Do not point a pressure washer at the joints.
Look out for the warning signs: cracks in the mastic, gaps you can see light through, damp on the reveal or mould around the inside of the frame. Any of these is worth a call.
