About our window mastic in Southampton
Around Southampton we seal all kinds of frames: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, along with patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. Common call-outs are for cold air getting in at the frame edge and sealant in the wrong colour for the frame, across window sills, uPVC windows and composite doors.
A place the size of Southampton has every kind of window, from older timber frames to uPVC and aluminium in newer homes, plus conservatories, patio doors and rooflights. The mastic around all of them ages, and it’s usually the first thing to let the weather in.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

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 keeps the clean look.
Window sills
Where a sill meets brick or render, the ends often crack first. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Windows and doors in Southampton
Southampton is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In the older streets around Saint Mary's, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Letting a property close to St Denys station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Quotes for window mastic in Southampton
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Whether it’s a home or a business
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.
Why it’s worth doing now in Southampton
If you are painting or rendering, reseal at the same time. A clean new bead makes new paint or render look finished. For landlords in Southampton, failed sealant soon turns into tenant complaints about mould, damp or draughts. Sorting it between tenancies is easier than dealing with it mid-let.
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 you get with us
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- One-year guarantee on every job
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. For homes and businesses in busier parts of Southampton, parking needs a little planning. Let us know about stairs, lifts or shared entrances too.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Related advice
Do you need window mastic in Southampton?
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. A sealant that can’t keep up eventually tears.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Black, perished sealant on frames
Schools such as Bevois Town Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee
- What insurance they hold
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared

Common questions in Southampton
Does the coastal weather in Southampton affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
I let a flat near St Denys station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
How long will my window job take?
That depends on the number of frames, how they’re reached and the state of the old mastic. You will know the timing when we quote.
What does window mastic cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
