uPVC windows
The frame is cleaned with a product that won’t harm the plastic, then the sealant goes in between frame and wall.
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on. We pay most attention there.
About our window mastic in Swanbourne
Around Swanbourne we seal all kinds of frames: uPVC, aluminium, timber and composite, along with patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. We work on timber windows & doors, patio & French doors and uPVC windows, and the jobs we see most are mastic that’s falling out in pieces and cracked sealant at the sill ends.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Swanbourne is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Signs you need window mastic in Swanbourne
Every frame moves through the day. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant cannot stretch, it splits.
The most common problems we see are:
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
Managing a site like Swanbourne Church of England VA School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

- How the colour is chosen

- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Whether they’re fully insured
What sealant work cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
- Faulty window hardware
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

What window mastic looks like in Swanbourne
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Swithun, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What else we do in Swanbourne
Should I try it myself first?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
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.

How much does window mastic cost in Swanbourne?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Not if it’s silicone. We choose the product with your decorating in mind, so mention it when you book.
Do you seal inside as well as outside?
Yes. Draughts often come through the inside gap too, so sealing both is often worthwhile.
Can you reach windows above the ground floor?
Yes, in most cases. Access is planned before any work starts, so mention the height and anything in the way.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
Timber frames need their paint kept up, since wood that gets wet swells and shrinks more. Keep paint off the silicone itself.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. Often the first sign is a damp patch inside or flaking paint on the reveal. Early resealing stops it reaching that point.
What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. In a small place like Swanbourne, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
