How we handle window mastic in Stroud Green
Colour matters on a frame. We can seal in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. Common call-outs are for black, perished sealant on frames and sealant in the wrong colour for the frame, on window sills, aluminium frames and timber windows & doors.
London has a lot of flats and conversions, where windows are often on upper floors. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first, and access in Stroud Green is something to talk through when you book.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Stroud Green questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Harringay station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can you do window mastic in Stroud Green?
Yes, Stroud Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
How long before the joint can be used?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Do you guarantee window mastic?
Yes. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we are ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Is the new sealant paintable?
Most silicone cannot be painted. If you plan to paint, tell us first and we can use a paintable sealant where it suits the joint.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
How many windows can you do in a day?
The work takes 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.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep timber frames painted
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
- Do not paint over the silicone
Check the drainage slots in the frames aren’t blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.
A failed joint lets water into the wall a little at a time. Often the first sign is a damp patch inside or flaking paint on the reveal. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.

Stroud Green homes and the weather
In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so it’s worth checking before booking. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In the older streets around Holy Trinity, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you let a flat or house near Harringay station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

How the job changes by surface
Patio & French doors
Heavy door frames can move more than windows. The sealant must cope with it, where a rigid one would crack.
Aluminium frames
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the bottom joint sees the most water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.
How we quote for window mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
- How many areas need sealing
- Access and height
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it has been sealed before

Why deal with it now?
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: the visit takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. In a flat in Stroud Green, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Related advice
Signs you need window mastic in Stroud Green
Water runs down the glass onto the sill, so the sill ends and the joint below the frame are common leak points. When that sealant fails, water gets into the wall or under the frame.
Look out for any of the following:
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
If you look after a building such as St Aidan's Voluntary Controlled Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
