How we handle window mastic in Paddock Wood
Around Paddock Wood we seal all kinds of frames: uPVC, aluminium, timber and composite, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. If you’re dealing with mastic that has split away from the wall and white mastic on grey or black frames, we can put it right.
Many houses in smaller places like Paddock Wood have conservatories, garden rooms or patio doors. Their glazing joints and frame seals are as much a part of the job as the windows, and any older timber or sash windows need a sealant that suits them.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What happens if it’s left?
Choosing the product is half the job. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone are not designed for outside joints that move. A low-modulus exterior sealant keeps its stretch through hot and cold weather. In an older home around Paddock Wood, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

Quotes for window mastic in Paddock Wood
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Whether the work is at height
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs
- The amount of work
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The type of property
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.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
Check the drainage slots in the frames are not blocked, so rain drains out rather than building up at the sealant.
Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. Resealing closes it.
Paddock Wood: your questions answered
I let a flat near Paddock Wood station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover Paddock Wood for window mastic?
Yes, Paddock Wood is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?
Yes. Draughts often come through the inside gap too, so it can be worth sealing both.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Usually, yes. Mention the frame colour when you ask for a quote and we will match it as closely as we can.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, where they can be reached safely. Let us know about access when you ask for a quote and we will plan for it.
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Surface by surface
Composite doors
Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, so its perimeter joint is sealed much like a window. We match the colour to the frame.
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.
Common problems we fix in Paddock Wood
Joints that are too thin or too deep fail early. A skim of sealant over a wide gap soon tears, while a joint packed solid can’t stretch. Backing rod sets the right depth.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- White mastic on grey or black frames
In the older streets around St Andrew's Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
