Window mastic for homes and businesses in Paddock
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. A new joint stops the air getting through. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we will tell you. If you’re dealing with gaps where the sill meets the wall and whistling draughts around closed windows, we can help, on aluminium frames, window sills and timber windows & doors alike.
Around Paddock, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What else we do in Paddock
Different surfaces, different methods
Patio & French doors
Patio and French doors have the longest joints on most houses. Most leaks start at the bottom corners, so we pay close attention there.
Aluminium frames
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the bottom joint sees the most water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
When to call us in Paddock
Water runs down the glass onto the sill, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. When that sealant fails, water gets into the wall or under the frame.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
Rented homes near Charing station change hands often, and renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Common questions in Paddock
Do you work for landlords with property near Charing station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Paddock?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Is the new sealant paintable?
Silicone generally won’t take paint. Let us know beforehand, and we’ll use a paintable product where it suits.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We check where the draught is before work begins.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Somewhere as small as Paddock, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
Window mastic in Paddock: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens (about 3.8 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Paddock as well as newer homes. In older buildings, 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 Challock Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Homes close to Church of St Cosmas and St Damian include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
