About our window mastic in Park Street
Homes in Park Street have every kind of window: uPVC, aluminium, timber and composite, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. If you have mastic that has split away from the wall and damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain, we can help, whatever the surface.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Park Street is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
The end joints of a sill tend to fail before the rest. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
uPVC windows
Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so we use a flexible, low-modulus sealant. We match white, brown, anthracite grey and black frames.
When to call us in Park Street
Every frame moves through the day. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the masonry beside it stays put. A sealant that cannot keep up eventually tears.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
For landlords with property near Park Street station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Park Street questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Park Street station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Can you do window mastic in Park Street?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Park Street is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Is the new sealant paintable?
Silicone generally will not take paint. Let us know beforehand, and we’ll use a paintable product where it suits.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Leave it or put it right?
Running fresh sealant over the old joint is tempting, but it won’t grip old, dirty sealant. It soon lifts and the leak carries on behind it. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around Park Street can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Somewhere as small as Park Street, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Move anything stored near the joints

Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
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.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured.

Frames and glazing around Park Street
Historic houses like High Elms Manor (about 2.7 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Park Street 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Trinity, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. If you look after a building such as Park Street Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
