How we handle window mastic in Stone in Oxney
Behind a thin line of old mastic there’s sometimes a deep void. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that cannot flex, so deep gaps get backing rod first. That way the new bead bonds to the frame and the wall only. We work on composite doors, uPVC windows and window sills, and people most often call us about black, perished sealant on frames and white mastic on grey or black frames.
Somewhere as small as Stone in Oxney, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Frames and glazing around Stone in Oxney
Historic houses like Smallhythe Place (about 3.2 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Stone in Oxney 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. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Homes close to Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Signs you need window mastic in Stone in Oxney
Frames are never completely still. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant cannot stretch, it splits.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
Rented homes near Appledore (Kent) station change hands often, and sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can you match the sealant to my frames?
Yes, in most cases. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we’ll use the nearest match.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Why deal with it now?
A cracked joint around a frame lets rain into the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. Resealing now is a small job by comparison. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Stone in Oxney, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

How the job changes by surface
Timber windows & doors
Older timber windows in stone or brick can suit sand mastic rather than modern sealant. We’ll tell you which suits your home.
Aluminium frames
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
