When something else is needed
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before work begins. Sealant will not put right:
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
- A sash or casement that won’t close properly
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up

Window mastic for homes and businesses in South Street
Over two decades of sealing frames has taught us which products suit which walls. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and we give a one-year guarantee on the work. We work on patio & French doors, aluminium frames and window sills, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked sealant at the sill ends and rushed sealant from a window installation.
In a village or hamlet like South Street, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

How the job changes by surface
Timber windows & doors
On period timber windows, traditional sand mastic is sometimes the better choice. We will tell you which suits your home.
Aluminium frames
Aluminium needs a sealant that bonds to coated metal and we avoid acetoxy silicones, which can react with some metals. We use a neutral-cure product.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Common problems we fix in South Street
Mastic ages in the weather. Sunlight dries the surface out, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
Homes close to Church of St Peter and St Paul include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

- Whether VAT is included

South Street homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens (about 4.4 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around South Street as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you let a flat or house near Selling station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. Managing a site like Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Why act early in South Street
Redecorating is a good moment to renew the mastic. A clean new bead makes new paint or render look finished, and it’s easier while the walls are being worked on anyway. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like South Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

What we do, step by step
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 anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Somewhere as small as South Street, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Getting ready for the visit
