Window Mastic in Sutton Wick
Our applicators work in Sutton Wick on mastic around window and door frames, sills and patio doors. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Window mastic in Sutton Wick
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 we fit backing rod to set the right depth. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. We work on composite doors, timber windows & doors and uPVC windows, and people most often call us about cracked sealant at the sill ends and old mastic that has gone black or come away.
Somewhere as small as Sutton Wick, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When to call us in Sutton Wick
Frames are never completely still. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- A bead that does not match the frame
- Black, perished sealant on frames
Schools such as Drayton Community Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Frames and glazing around Sutton Wick
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Clifton Hampden Manor (about 4.2 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Sutton Wick as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For landlords with property near Appleford station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. Homes close to Church of Saint Peter include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

How we quote for window mastic
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Any mould that needs treating
- How many areas need sealing
- Which sealant suits the joint
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- If someone has resealed it before
- The address or postcode of the job
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
Surface by surface
Window sills
The end joints of a sill tend to fail before the rest. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. Most leaks start at the bottom corners, so we pay close attention there.

Why it’s worth doing now in Sutton Wick
Draughts and leaks don’t always mean new windows. If the frames and glass are in good order, resealing the joints is often all that’s needed. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we’ll tell you. Around Sutton Wick, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Sutton Wick: your questions answered
Is Sutton Wick in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Sutton Wick is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like Sutton Wick?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Yes. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the joint suits the frame.
How long before the joint can be used?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.
How long will my window job take?
It depends on access, the old mastic and the size of the frames. You’ll know the timing when we quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Can you reach windows above the ground floor?
Yes, as long as they can be reached safely. Tell us about access when you get in touch and we will plan for it.
When it isn’t the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
