About our window mastic in Rookley
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. Resealing that joint can make a room feel noticeably less draughty and quietens the whistle on windy days. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we will tell you. We work on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and timber windows & doors, and people most often call us about draughts coming in around windows and doors and cracked internal joints between frame and plaster.
Homes in small places like Rookley often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Window mastic in Rookley: local notes
Historic houses like Sheat Manor (about 1 mile west) are a reminder that the area around Rookley has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
Managing a site like Chillerton and Rookley Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Shanklin 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. If you live in an older home near St. Olave's Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

How the job changes by surface
Patio & French doors
Door frames take knocks and movement every time the doors are used. A flexible sealant copes with that.
Timber windows & doors
Wood swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it dries, so the joint must stay flexible. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.
Why it’s worth doing now in Rookley
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun is not 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. Around Rookley, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Rookley
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Full insurance on every job
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Somewhere as small as Rookley, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
- A sash or casement that will not close properly
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Check the mastic once a year
- Keep paint off silicone joints
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early.
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.
