Signs you need window mastic in Sandhurst

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • A bead that does not match the frame
  • Whistling draughts around closed windows
  • Gaps where the sill meets the wall
  • Mastic that has split away from the wall

For landlords with property near Sandhurst station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

10 questions to ask before you book

Window mastic in Sandhurst

From a single sill to a whole house of windows, the work is priced before anything is done. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us how many frames there are and how they’re reached. If you are dealing with cold air getting in at the frame edge and cracked sealant at the sill ends, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Sandhurst mixes older streets, where windows have often been replaced, with newer estates fitted with uPVC. In every case, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps water out.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we do, step by step

We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. A visit in Sandhurst needs access to the work and a place to park close by. For outside work, let us know about side access, gates and any upper-floor joints.

  1. We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
  2. We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
  3. Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
  4. A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
  5. Every joint is checked before we leave.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice

Different surfaces, different methods

Window sills

Masonry sills can have joints where water gets in, and the joint under the frame can let rain run behind. Those are sealed with a product suited to stone or concrete.

Aluminium frames

Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.

Frames and glazing around Sandhurst

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.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Sandhurst School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. For an older house near a landmark such as St George's Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

FAQs for Sandhurst

Can you do window mastic in Sandhurst?

Yes, Sandhurst is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Is there a guarantee on window mastic in Sandhurst?

All our work, in Sandhurst and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.

Do you seal inside as well as outside?

Yes, we do both. Indoors, we seal between the frame and the plaster or reveal.

How long before the joint can be used?

It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.

What information do you need?

Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Don’t aim a pressure washer at the joints
  • Paint up to the joint, not over it
  • Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
  • Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water

On timber frames, keep the paintwork in good order, because bare, wet timber moves more and pulls at the joint. Paint up to the joint, not over the silicone.

Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and heat escapes around the frame. A new joint closes it up.
