Window mastic in Petham, done properly
Over two decades of sealing frames has taught us which products suit which walls. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee. If you have gaps where the sill meets the wall and hard, cracked sealant around windows, we can put it right, on timber windows & doors, aluminium frames and window sills alike.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Petham is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Why act early in Petham
Choosing the product is half the job. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t designed for outside joints that move. A low-modulus exterior sealant keeps its stretch through hot and cold weather. In a small place like Petham, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before we start.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. For a village or hamlet like Petham, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Move anything stored near the joints

Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?
Yes, in most cases. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we will use the nearest match.
How do I get a quote for window mastic in Petham?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Not usually, if it’s silicone. We choose the product with your decorating in mind, so mention it when you book.

What we’re called out for in Petham
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Mastic that is falling out in pieces
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Who turns up on the day
Petham homes and the weather

Rented homes near Chartham station change hands often, and renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. If you look after a building such as Petham Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Surface by surface
Window sills
Every drop off the glass ends up on the sill, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
Patio & French doors
Heavy door frames can move more than windows. The sealant must cope with it.
When something else is needed
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
