Problem with your window and door frames in Nursted? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a 12-month guarantee.

The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself generally takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames, depending on how much there is to do. For a village or hamlet like Nursted, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- All the failed sealant is cut away.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access

Window mastic in Nursted
Frames and walls do not move together. Heat and cold make frames grow and shrink against brick or render that hardly moves. So the sealant has to stretch and recover, which is why we use a low-modulus product. We work on window sills, uPVC windows and timber windows & doors, and people most often call us about sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and draughty joints inside around the window.
In a village or hamlet like Nursted, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Leave it or put it right?
Resealing frames is a short job: it takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. In a small place like Nursted, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal

- Timber windows & doors

Frames and glazing around Nursted
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Uppark (about 2.5 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Nursted as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Petersfield School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Petersfield 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.

Nursted questions
Do you cover smaller places like Nursted?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do window mastic in Nursted?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Nursted is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Tell us about access when you get in touch and we’ll plan for it.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Is the new sealant paintable?
That depends on the product. Silicone isn’t paintable, but some hybrid sealants are. Tell us if you’re decorating and we will choose accordingly.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Surface by surface
uPVC windows
The frame is cleaned with a product that won’t harm the plastic, then the sealant goes in between frame and wall and tooled smooth.
Aluminium frames
Aluminium moves with heat, and the frames are often slimmer than uPVC. A neat, narrow bead in a colour to match keeps the clean look.
Do you need window mastic in Nursted?
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it’s rigid, every bit of frame movement pulls at it, and a gap opens along one edge.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
Uppark, about 2.5 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Nursted.
