What affects the quote in Stamford Hill

- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The type of sealant required
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- If someone has resealed it before
- Photos by email, if that is easy
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.
About our window mastic in Stamford Hill
There are two joints on most windows. Outside, the mastic keeps rain out; the internal joint closes the gap to the plaster and stops draughts. We seal one or both, depending on what’s needed. Typical jobs include cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame and gaps where the sill meets the wall, across timber windows & doors, patio & French doors and aluminium frames.
London homes have every kind of window, from timber sashes in period terraces to aluminium and uPVC in newer blocks. The mastic around them dries out and cracks with age, which is when draughts and damp patches appear in homes in Stamford Hill.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected.
Where do you work from?
We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What the job involves on each surface
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.
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. We pay most attention there.
What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. In Stamford Hill, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Frames and glazing around Stamford Hill
Historic houses like Sutton House (about 1.8 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Stamford Hill has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so it’s worth checking before booking.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Andrew, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. As a London address, Stamford Hill can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. If you let a flat or house near Stamford Hill station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stamford Hill
If you are painting or rendering, reseal at the same time. A clean new bead makes new paint or render look finished. In a flat in Stamford Hill, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
