- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
Leave it or put it right?
Running fresh sealant over the old joint is tempting, but it will not grip old, dirty sealant. It peels before long, and water still gets in behind. The old mastic has to come out. Around Sun Rising, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Why Sun Rising clients choose us
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- One-year guarantee on every job

How we handle window mastic in Sun Rising
Homes in Sun Rising have every kind of window: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, along with patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. If you are dealing with old mastic that has gone black or come away and hard, cracked sealant around windows, we can put it right.
Around Sun Rising, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

When something else is needed
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Sun Rising, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

FAQs for Sun Rising
Is Sun Rising in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Sun Rising is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is there a guarantee on window mastic in Sun Rising?
All our work, in Sun Rising and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.
How much does window mastic cost in Sun Rising?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
When to call us in Sun Rising
Mastic ages in the weather. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Around Sun Rising, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Quotes for window mastic in Sun Rising
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The address or postcode of the job
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved and give you a clear quote.
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Window mastic in Sun Rising: local notes
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. Historic houses like Upton House (about 0.5 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Sun Rising has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
