Window mastic for homes and businesses in Peasmarsh
Behind a thin line of old mastic there’s sometimes a deep void. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that can’t flex, so we fit backing rod to set the right depth. That way the new bead bonds to the frame and the wall only. We work on composite doors, window sills and aluminium frames, and people most often call us about cold air getting in at the frame edge and cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Peasmarsh is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Check the mastic once a year
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
A small gap around a frame only grows. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. Resealing closes it.
What happens if it’s left?
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially on upper floors. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Peasmarsh, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

What else we do in Peasmarsh
When to call us in Peasmarsh
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Black, perished sealant on frames
Homes close to The Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- The length of the guarantee
- Is VAT in the price?
- How much experience the applicator has
Peasmarsh: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Rye station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Peasmarsh?
Yes, Peasmarsh is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Does the work come with a guarantee?
Yes. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
If the draught is coming in around the frame, yes. If it’s through the window’s own seals or a hinge, that’s a different fix, and we’ll say so.
How do I get a quote for window mastic in Peasmarsh?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before we start.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?
Yes. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
That depends on the product. Silicone is not paintable, but some hybrid sealants are. Mention any painting plans before any work starts.
Frames and glazing around Peasmarsh
Historic houses like Lamb House (about 2.5 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Peasmarsh has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Managing a site like Peasmarsh Church of England Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For landlords with property near Rye station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
- Faulty window hardware
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Somewhere as small as Peasmarsh, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in
