Window mastic in Norton Heath, done properly
The new joint doesn’t have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. We’re often asked to deal with hard, cracked sealant around windows and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door, on patio & French doors, window sills and timber windows & doors.
In a village or hamlet like Norton Heath, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Window mastic in Norton Heath: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Ingatestone Hall (about 4.8 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Norton Heath has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
Letting a property close to Ingatestone station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. In the older streets around Church of All Saints, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. If you look after a building such as Blackmore Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep timber frames painted
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
Keep the new mastic undisturbed while it cures, for as long as we advise. Keep jet washers away from the frames.
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.
Different surfaces, different methods
Aluminium frames
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
Patio & French doors
Not every patio door leak is a mastic problem: blocked drain slots, worn brush seals and threshold details can let water in too. We look for the cause first.

How it works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door in most cases. Somewhere as small as Norton Heath, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
