When to call us in Tilford Common
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.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as All Saints CofE Aided Infant School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Keep paint off silicone joints
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
Signs to watch for: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. Any of these is worth a call.
Tilford Common homes and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Farnham Castle (about 3.9 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Tilford Common as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Letting a property close to Farnham station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Different surfaces, different methods
Patio & French doors
Heavy door frames can move more than windows. The sealant must cope with it without cracking.
Timber windows & doors
Soft or rotten wood can’t be sealed successfully. If we find rot, we will tell you before going ahead, as a joiner will need to deal with it.

Do you cover Tilford Common for window mastic?
Yes, Tilford Common is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
How long does it take to reseal the windows on a house?
A few frames take a few hours. You’ll get a timescale with the quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, in most cases. Access is planned before any work starts, so mention the height and anything in the way.

What does window mastic cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.
How long should I leave it?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What happens if it’s left?
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. Around Tilford Common, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
