Window mastic in Peel Common
Frames and walls don’t move together. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. That is why the joint needs a flexible, low-modulus sealant rather than something rigid. We are often asked to deal with water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and a bead that doesn’t match the frame, on patio & French doors, window sills and uPVC windows.
Homes in small places like Peel Common often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Windows and doors in Peel Common
Peel Common is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on the mastic around window and door frames, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Rented homes near Fareham station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Peel Common Junior School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

What affects the quote in Peel Common
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Access and height
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Where the property is
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Roughly how big the job is
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Aluminium frames
- uPVC windows
- Patio & French doors
- Timber windows & doors
- Window sills
- Composite doors
What we are called out for in Peel Common
Plenty of failed mastic was poorly applied in the first place. Sealant run over dust, wet brick or loose mortar never bonded as it should, and it lets go sooner than it should.
The most common problems we see are:
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
Homes close to Peel Common Mission Church include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Leave it or put it right?
Draughts and leaks don’t always mean new windows. Where the frames are sound, new mastic usually deals with draughts and leaks at the edges. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we will tell you. In a small place like Peel Common, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why Peel Common customers choose us
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

How it works
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 normally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. For a village or hamlet like Peel Common, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any water getting in

FAQs for Peel Common
I let a flat near Fareham station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Does the coastal weather in Peel Common affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
What does window mastic cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Does the work come with a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. A yearly look at the joints helps them last.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Generally, yes. Mention the frame colour when you ask for a quote and we’ll use the nearest match.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Check the mastic once a year
Most silicone sealants will not take paint, so if you’re planning to paint the frames or walls, tell us beforehand. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.
Water trapped behind a failed joint can start rot in timber frames and sills. Once wood has rotted, it needs repair before it can be sealed, so early resealing is worth it.
Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
