Window mastic in Sewardstone, done properly
Frames and walls do not move together. Heat and cold make frames grow and shrink against brick or render that hardly moves. So the sealant has to stretch and recover, which is why we use a low-modulus product. We’re often asked to deal with draughts coming in around windows and doors and mastic that’s falling out in pieces, on uPVC windows, window sills and composite doors.
London has a lot of flats and conversions, where windows are often on upper floors. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Sewardstone questions
Do you cover Sewardstone for window mastic?
Yes, Sewardstone is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Enfield Lock station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.

What sealant work can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- uPVC windows
- Patio & French doors
- Composite doors
- Timber windows & doors
- Aluminium frames
- Window sills
Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
Every drop off the glass ends up on the sill, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
Timber windows & doors
Timber moves with moisture as well as heat, so the joint must stay flexible. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.
What affects the quote in Sewardstone
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- How many areas need sealing
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether the work is at height
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed

For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. For a job in Sewardstone, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
Sewardstone homes and the weather
In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so check that before you book. With historic houses such as Forty Hall (about 2.8 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Sewardstone as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Rented homes near Enfield Lock station change hands often, and sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. If you look after a building such as Prince of Wales Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. As a London address, Sewardstone can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
Timber frames need their paint kept up, because bare, wet timber moves more and pulls at the joint. Paint up to the joint, not over the silicone.
Leaks generally show up in wet, windy weather, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.
What happens if it’s left?
Not every sealant suits a window. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t designed for outside joints that move. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Sewardstone, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
