DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
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.
Window mastic in Staplers
From a single sill to a whole house of windows, the work is priced before anything is done. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the number of frames and any access details for window mastic in Staplers. We work on composite doors, patio & French doors and timber windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are draughty joints inside around the window and rain getting in at the frame or under the sill.
In smaller places like Staplers, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. The right sealant depends on the frame and on what it sits in.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Landlords and letting agents in Staplers can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of old mastic looks like an easy fix, but new sealant cannot bond to old, crumbling mastic. It peels before long, and water still gets in behind. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. In an older home around Staplers, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped

Questions from Staplers
Is there a guarantee on window mastic in Staplers?
All our work, in Staplers and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Staplers in your area for window mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Staplers is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will tell you what we’re using.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Staplers, along with the rest of our area.
Can you reach windows above the ground floor?
Yes, where they can be reached safely. Tell us about access when you get in touch so we can plan the job.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
When to call us in Staplers
Joint shape matters as much as the product. A thin smear across a wide gap has nothing to it, and a gap filled solid can’t flex. That’s what backing rod is for.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
For an older house near a landmark such as St Paul's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. For a job in Staplers, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Keep timber frames painted
- Do not aim a pressure washer at the joints
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Look out for the warning signs: cracks in the mastic, gaps you can see light through, damp on the reveal or mould around the inside of the frame. Any of these is worth a call.
Staplers homes and the weather
Historic houses like Carisbrooke Castle (about 1.9 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Staplers has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. London and the South East are among 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 look after a building such as Barton Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
