Common problems we fix in Stone Cross
Joint shape matters as much as the product. A thin smear across a wide gap has nothing to it, while a joint packed solid cannot stretch. Backing rod sets the right depth.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
Homes close to Church of St Martin of Tours include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day

Landlord and commercial work in Stone Cross
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere like Stone Cross needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
- Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
- Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked
- Check the mastic once a year
- Do not paint over the silicone
Keep sill grooves and drainage slots clear, so rain drains out rather than building up at the sealant.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.
Common questions in Stone Cross
Is Stone Cross within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ashurst Kent station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Yes, in most cases. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we will use the nearest match.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient.
Does the work come with a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Why deal with it now?
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: the visit takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. In a small place like Stone Cross, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A few things move the cost up or down: 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.
Why us?
- Colour agreed with you before work begins
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild

Frames and glazing around Stone Cross
With historic houses such as Groombridge Place (about 1.1 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Stone Cross as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Schools such as Fordcombe Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Ashurst Kent station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.
