Stodmarsh Window Mastic
Window and door frames in Stodmarsh need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
Common problems we fix in Stodmarsh
Joints that are too thin or too deep fail early. A skim of sealant over a wide gap soon tears, and a gap filled solid can’t flex. Backing rod sets the right depth.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
If you let a flat or house near Sturry station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What window mastic looks like in Stodmarsh
With historic houses such as Goodnestone Park (about 4.4 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Stodmarsh as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Schools such as Wickhambreaux Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

How the visit works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. Most jobs take most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Somewhere like Stodmarsh needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by checking each window and door with you.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
Common questions in Stodmarsh
Will you come out to Stodmarsh?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do window mastic in Stodmarsh?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Stodmarsh is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, regularly. Several properties can go on one quote.
How many windows can you do in a day?
The work takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Access and how stubborn the old mastic is affect the time most.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
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.
Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?
Yes. Draughts often come through the inside gap too, so it can be worth sealing both.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Stodmarsh
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Leave it or put it right?
Once mastic fails, rain can get between the frame and the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. A reseal is a much smaller job. In a small place like Stodmarsh, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

What the job involves on each surface
Aluminium frames
Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
Timber windows & doors
Wood swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it dries, so the joint must stay flexible. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.
