Window mastic in Oving
From a single sill to a whole house of windows, you’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the number of frames and any access details. We work on timber windows & doors, uPVC windows and composite doors, and common reasons people get in touch are cold air getting in at the frame edge and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door.
Somewhere as small as Oving, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Oving and across West Sussex.

Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
Stone and concrete sills have their own joints, including the one between the sill and the frame above. We seal those with a sealant suited to masonry.
Patio & French doors
Heavy door frames can move more than windows. The sealant must cope with it.
Oving questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Chichester station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Oving?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Silicone generally won’t take paint. If you plan to paint, tell us first and we can use a paintable sealant where it suits the joint.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Can you match the sealant to my frames?
Yes. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
How long will my window job take?
A handful of frames is a short visit, while a whole house takes longer. We confirm the timing with your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

How we quote for window mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The amount of work
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Access and height
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- If someone has resealed it before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The address or postcode of the job
We do not publish a price list. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Oving homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Goodwood House (about 2.4 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Oving 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. 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.
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Andrew, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Westbourne House School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Chichester station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Keep timber frames painted
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
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.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Oving, the journey is planned in advance: 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 look at every frame and agree the list.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
How to get a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.
Advice
Why deal with it now?
Getting a straight, even bead on an outside frame takes practice, especially on upper floors. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Oving, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Colour picked to suit the job
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
What sealant work cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Condensation trapped between the panes
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- A sash or casement that won’t close properly
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
