Window & door mastic in Stonesfield, Oxfordshire
Problem with your window and door frames in Stonesfield? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
Window mastic in Stonesfield, done properly
Behind a thin line of old mastic there’s sometimes a deep void. Filling it with sealant alone leaves a joint that cannot move properly, so deep gaps get backing rod first. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. We work on patio & French doors, timber windows & doors and aluminium frames, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and draughty joints inside around the window.
Around Stonesfield, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
Keep sill grooves and drainage slots clear, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are in most cases. Somewhere like Stonesfield needs a little journey planning: 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.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
Surface by surface
Timber windows & doors
Timber moves with moisture as well as heat, so a flexible sealant is essential. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so we pay close attention there.
Common questions in Stonesfield
Do you work for landlords with property near Finstock station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Stonesfield?
Yes. Stonesfield is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How many windows can you do in a day?
Allow anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Access and the amount of old mastic make the biggest difference.
Does the work come with a guarantee?
Yes, with our 12-month guarantee. Keeping drainage clear and checking the joints yearly helps them last.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Silicone generally will not take paint. Let us know beforehand, and we’ll use a paintable product where it suits.
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 just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Stonesfield homes and the weather
Historic houses like Blenheim Palace (about 3 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Stonesfield has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you live in an older home near Church of St James the Great, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Rented homes near Finstock station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Stonesfield School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stonesfield
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: it takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. In a small place like Stonesfield, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
