Window Mastic in Stick Hill
We cover Stick Hill for mastic around window and door frames, sills and patio doors. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
Window mastic in Stick Hill
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. A new joint stops the air getting through and quietens the whistle on windy days. Where the air is getting in through the window itself, we’ll say so. If you have mastic that’s falling out in pieces and cold air getting in at the frame edge, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Stick Hill, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Do you need window mastic in Stick Hill?
A lot of older mastic was never designed to stay flexible. Once it’s rigid, every bit of frame movement pulls at it, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
In the older streets around Church of the Holy Trinity, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. The job generally takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. For a village or hamlet like Stick Hill, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

How we quote for window mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many areas need sealing
- How easy the joints are to reach
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How we’d reach the joints
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Why deal with it now?
Not every sealant suits a window. Interior caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t made for exterior frame joints. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. In a small place like Stick Hill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

Stick Hill homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Hever Castle (about 1.5 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Stick Hill as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. 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.
Letting a property close to Hever station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Surface by surface
Timber windows & doors
Timber moves with moisture as well as heat, so a flexible sealant is essential. The paint or stain needs to be sound where the sealant meets it.
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on. Those corners get the most care.
What we can’t put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
