Window mastic for homes and businesses in Privett
The new joint doesn’t have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. We work on uPVC windows, timber windows & doors and aluminium frames, and the jobs we see most are draughts coming in around windows and doors and sealant in the wrong colour for the frame.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Privett is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

When to call us in Privett
Sills take more water than any other part of a window, so the sill ends and the joint below the frame are common leak points. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
Rented homes near Petersfield 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.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is VAT in the price?
- What the cure time is
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Condensation trapped between the panes
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

What window mastic looks like in Privett
Historic houses like Hinton Ampner House (about 5 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Privett has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In the older streets around Holy Trinity Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

Why act early in Privett
Failed mastic isn’t a reason to replace sound windows. If the frames and glass are in good order, resealing the joints is often all that’s needed. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we’ll tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Privett, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

How the job changes by surface
Timber windows & doors
Wood swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it dries, so the joint must stay flexible. The paint or stain needs to be sound where the sealant meets it.
uPVC windows
Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. We cut it out, back any deep gaps and reseal properly.

Questions from Privett
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Petersfield station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Privett in your area for window mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Privett is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Can you reach windows above the ground floor?
Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Let us know about access when you ask for a quote and we will plan for it.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Can new window sealant be painted?
That depends on the product. Some hybrid sealants can be painted; silicone can’t. Mention any painting plans before we start.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Somewhere as small as Privett, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
