Common problems we fix in Sutton
A lot of older mastic was never designed to stay flexible. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Stanton Harcourt CofE Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

What the job involves on each surface
Composite doors
Draughts round the door leaf generally come from worn seals or adjustment, not the mastic. We seal the frame and let you know about anything else.
Patio & French doors
Patio and French doors have the longest joints on most houses. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so we pay close attention there.
Sutton homes and the weather
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Appleton Manor (about 3.5 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Sutton as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Michael, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. If you let a flat or house near Hanborough station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Don’t aim a pressure washer at the joints
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Don’t paint over the silicone
Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
What affects the quote in Sutton
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Access and height
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- The type of property
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
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. Everything old must be removed first.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. For a village or hamlet like Sutton, 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.
- We start by checking each window and door with you.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun is not easy, especially upstairs. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Sutton, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- We are fully insured
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows

Questions from Sutton
I let a flat near Hanborough station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover Sutton for window mastic?
Yes, Sutton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
In many cases. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and resealing inside and out closes it.
Can you do upstairs windows?
Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Tell us about access when you get in touch and we will plan for it.
Can you do the inside joint as well?
Yes. Plenty of draughts come through the inside joint as well as the outside, so sealing both is often worthwhile.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
