Window mastic in Tickham

Looking after it afterwards

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
  • Keep jet washers away from the mastic
  • Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
  • Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked

Most silicone sealants won’t take paint, so mention any painting plans before we start. We can use a paintable sealant where that matters.

Leaks usually show up in wet, windy weather, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.

Window mastic in Tickham, done properly

Colour matters on a frame. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. We work on timber windows & doors, window sills and patio & French doors, and people most often call us about a bead that doesn’t match the frame and old mastic that has gone black or come away.

Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Tickham is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Signs you need window mastic in Tickham

Water runs down the glass onto the sill, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.

People usually contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Gaps where the sill meets the wall
  • Mastic that has split away from the wall
  • White mastic on grey or black frames
  • Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill

Managing a site like Lynsted and Norton Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Choosing a sealant specialist

Leave it or put it right?

Redecorating is a good moment to renew the mastic. Fresh joints finish the job neatly, and it’s easier while the walls are being worked on anyway. Older cottages and farmhouses around Tickham can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Why us?

  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • You choose the colour before work begins
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

What affects the cost of window mastic

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • The amount of work
  • How easy the joints are to reach

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we need to know

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • Where the property is
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before work begins.

What the job involves on each surface

Timber windows & doors

Soft or rotten wood cannot be sealed successfully. If we find rot, we’ll tell you before going ahead, as that is a job for a joiner.

Composite doors

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

Tickham homes and the weather

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Belmont House and Gardens (about 3.2 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Tickham has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

If you let a flat or house near Teynham station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

What happens on the day

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Somewhere as small as Tickham, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We check how each frame can be reached safely.
  2. Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
  3. Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
  4. Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
  5. The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

When it isn’t the sealant

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • Damp problems in the wall away from the window
  • A failed sealed unit that has misted up
  • A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
