How we handle window mastic in South Newington
Every window and door frame has a gap around it, and mastic is what closes it. When it cracks, hardens or pulls away, draughts and rain get in. Our applicators cut it out and replace it with a flexible, weatherproof sealant. We work on patio & French doors, window sills and uPVC windows, and people most often call us about cracked sealant at the sill ends and old mastic that has gone black or come away.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in South Newington is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Do you need window mastic in South Newington?
Frames are never completely still. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant cannot stretch, it splits.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
Around South Newington, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Do not paint over the silicone
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak.
Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and heat escapes around the frame. Resealing closes it.
What window mastic looks like in South Newington
With historic houses such as Broughton Castle (about 3.1 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around South Newington as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
In the older streets around St Peter ad Vincula, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Questions from South Newington
Can you do window mastic in South Newington?
Yes, South Newington is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is South Newington within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?
Yes, we choose a colour to suit the frame. Anthracite grey, black, brown and white cover most frames, with clear as an option.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like South Newington, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Every joint is checked before we leave.

Advice
Why deal with it now?
Failed mastic is not a reason to replace sound windows. If the frames and glass are in good order, resealing the joints is often all that’s needed. Problems with the glass or gaskets are for a window company, and we’ll say so. Older cottages and farmhouses around South Newington can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
