Window mastic in Stoke Charity, done properly
Every window and door frame has a gap around it, and mastic is what closes it. When it cracks, hardens or pulls away, draughts and rain get in. Our applicators cut it out and replace it with a flexible, weatherproof sealant. We work on timber windows & doors, patio & French doors and composite doors, and the jobs we see most are draughty joints inside around the window and mastic that’s falling out in pieces.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Stoke Charity is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Check the mastic once a year
Timber frames need their paint kept up, since wood that gets wet swells and shrinks more. Paint up to the joint, not over the silicone.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Signs you need window mastic in Stoke Charity
Plenty of failed mastic was poorly applied in the first place. Sealant run over dust, wet brick or loose mortar didn’t grip properly, so it comes away long before its time.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
In the older streets around Church of St Michael, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
