How we handle window mastic in Ridgewood
The new joint doesn’t have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. We work on window sills, aluminium frames and uPVC windows, and the jobs we see most are cold air getting in at the frame edge and cracked internal joints between frame and plaster.
In smaller places like Ridgewood, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. Each frame material needs the right sealant against the right wall.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Condensation trapped between the panes
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal

What happens if it’s left?
Choosing the product is half the job. Interior caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t made for exterior frame joints. A low-modulus exterior sealant keeps its stretch through hot and cold weather. Around Ridgewood, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

What window mastic looks like in Ridgewood
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.
Letting a property close to Uckfield station? Then sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. Managing a site like Harlands Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. In the older streets around St Saviour, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What affects the quote in Ridgewood
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The number of rooms or windows
- The number and length of the joints
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How the job changes by surface
Window sills
Sills catch the water running down the glass, so the sill ends and the joint under the frame are vital. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
Aluminium frames
Metal frames expand in the sun and are often slim, with little room for error. A neat, narrow bead in a colour to match suits the frame.
