How the job changes by surface
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on. Those corners get the most care.
Window sills
Every drop off the glass ends up on the sill, so the sill ends and the joint under the frame are vital. Each is cleaned out and resealed.

DIY versus a professional finish
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, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Why it’s worth doing now in Swaile's Green
A cracked joint around a frame lets rain into the wall. Over time that can mean damp patches, damaged plaster and rotting timber. A reseal is a much smaller job. In a small place like Swaile's Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
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.

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Somewhere as small as Swaile's Green, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Keep timber frames painted
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
Look out for the warning signs: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. Any of these is worth a call.
Window mastic in Swaile's Green: local notes
With historic houses such as Durhamford Manor (about 1.2 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Swaile's Green as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. 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.
Letting a property close to Robertsbridge station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets. If you look after a building such as Staplecross Methodist Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Do you need window mastic in Swaile's Green?
Joint shape matters as much as the product. A thin smear across a wide gap has nothing to it, and a gap filled solid cannot flex. Backing rod sets the right depth.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
Homes close to St Marks Staplecross include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
