If you’re dealing with cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame and black, perished sealant on frames, we can put it right.
Around Tetsworth, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames from start to finish. For a village or hamlet like Tetsworth, 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.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Tetsworth: your questions answered
Is Tetsworth in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Tetsworth is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is Tetsworth within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can resealing stop a draught around my window?
Yes, if the air is getting in around the frame. If it’s through the window’s own seals or a hinge, that’s a different fix, and we’ll say so.
Why act early in Tetsworth
A cracked joint around a frame lets rain into the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. A reseal is a much smaller job. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Tetsworth, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t solve:
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
- Condensation trapped between the panes
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Aluminium frames
- uPVC windows
- Composite doors

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Do not paint over the silicone
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Do not aim a pressure washer at the joints
Silicone cannot usually be painted, so if you’re planning to paint the frames or walls, tell us beforehand. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.
Leaks generally show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
Surface by surface
uPVC windows
The frame is cleaned with a product that will not harm the plastic, then the sealant goes in between frame and wall and tooled smooth.
Window sills
Where a sill meets brick or render, the ends often crack first. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Common problems we fix in Tetsworth
On timber frames, paint and putty build up around the joint. Old mastic gets painted over and cracks under the paint, and timber moves with moisture as well as temperature.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
In the older streets around Church of St Giles, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

Window mastic in Tetsworth: local notes
With historic houses such as Adwell House (about 1.4 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Tetsworth 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
