Trusted window mastic in Swanscombe

About our window mastic in Swanscombe

Over two decades of sealing frames has taught us which products suit which walls. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and we give a 12-month guarantee on the work. If you have mastic that has split away from the wall and black, perished sealant on frames, we can put it right, on patio & French doors, uPVC windows and composite doors alike.

Many houses in smaller places like Swanscombe have conservatories, garden rooms or patio doors. Those joints need the same attention as the main windows.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Leave it or put it right?

The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: it takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. In a smaller place like Swanscombe, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why book with us

  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Old sealant always removed completely

How it works

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Parking around Swanscombe is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
  2. All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
  4. Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
  5. The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Advice

Do you need window mastic in Swanscombe?

On timber frames, paint and putty build up around the joint. Mastic painted over many times cracks with the paint, and the wood moves with damp as well as heat.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Draughty joints inside around the window
  • Untidy mastic left by window fitters
  • White mastic on grey or black frames
  • Mastic that has split away from the wall

Managing a site like Knockhall Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Before booking anyone

  • How long to leave it before use
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • How the colour is chosen
  • What product goes in the joint

10 questions to ask before you book

Different surfaces, different methods

Timber windows & doors

On period timber windows, traditional sand mastic is sometimes the better choice. We can talk through the options.

Composite doors

A composite door normally sits in a plastic outer frame, so its perimeter joint is sealed much like a window. We match the colour to the frame.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Swanscombe

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.

Swanscombe homes and the weather

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

In the older streets around Church of St Mary, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Rented homes near Greenhithe for Bluewater station change hands often, and sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Check the mastic once a year
  • Wash the frames with mild soapy water
  • Keep jet washers away from the mastic
  • Clear any debris from frame drain holes

Silicone can’t usually be painted, so mention any painting plans before we start. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.

Water trapped behind a failed joint can start rot in timber frames and sills. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so it pays to reseal before that happens.
