How we handle window mastic in Rushenden
Colour matters on a frame. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. If you have water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame, we can help.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Rushenden is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Frames and glazing around Rushenden
Rushenden is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. 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.
Schools such as Queenborough School and Nursery are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Letting a property close to Queenborough station? Then 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 Parish Church of the Holy Trinity, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Your questions about window mastic in Rushenden

What does window mastic cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?
Yes. Inside, the joint between frame and plaster is sealed neatly, using a paintable sealant if you want to decorate.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
Most silicone cannot be painted. If you plan to paint, tell us first and we can use a paintable sealant where it suits the joint.
Quotes for window mastic in Rushenden
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The type of sealant required
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How easy the joints are to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- If someone has resealed it before
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Different surfaces, different methods
Aluminium frames
Metal frames expand in the sun and are often slim, with little room for error. A tidy bead in anthracite grey, black or a matching colour suits the frame.
Patio & French doors
Not every patio door leak is a mastic problem: worn seals, blocked drainage slots or a poor threshold detail can be the cause. We look for the cause first.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Condensation trapped between the panes
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Window sills
- Aluminium frames
- Patio & French doors
- Timber windows & doors
- Composite doors
- uPVC windows
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Don’t aim a pressure washer at the joints
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early.
Look out for the warning signs: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. If you notice one, it’s time to get the joint looked at.
Why it’s worth doing now in Rushenden
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially on upper floors. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Rushenden, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
