Titchfield Window Mastic
Problem with your window and door frames in Titchfield? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
About our window mastic in Titchfield
The mastic around a window or door seals the gap between the frame and the wall. Once that seal fails, wind and rain find the gap. Our applicators cut it out and replace it with a flexible, weatherproof sealant. Common call-outs are for leaking joints at the ends of sills and gaps between the frame and the inside reveal, on composite doors, window sills and aluminium frames.
In a village or hamlet like Titchfield, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Common questions in Titchfield
Will you come out to Titchfield?
Yes. Titchfield is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is window mastic in a coastal place like Titchfield any different?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Does the work come with a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. Keeping drainage clear and checking the joints yearly helps them last.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Titchfield and the rest of Hampshire, along with the rest of our area.
When something else is needed
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- A sash or casement that will not close properly
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal

Windows and doors in Titchfield
Titchfield is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on the mastic around window and door frames, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. London and the South East are among the drier parts 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 Peter, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Letting a property close to Fareham station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.
Titchfield is about 2 miles west of Fareham, in Hampshire. Every kind of property in Titchfield is covered for window mastic, old or new, large or small. The work is guaranteed for a year. We cover 683 towns and villages across Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our Portsmouth page covers work nearby (7 miles or so).
Work in PO14 and PO15 is quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. Window mastic is available to properties on High Street, Sandy Lane and Garstons Close and the roads around them. If you are just outside Titchfield, we cover Catisfield (1 mile east), Little Posbrook (1 mile south), Titchfield Park (1 mile north), Heathfield (1 mile east) and Titchfield Common (1 mile west). Larger places within reach include Winchester (15 miles north), Gosport (5 miles south-east), Havant (11 miles east), Eastleigh (10 miles north-west), Horndean (11 miles north-east) and Totton (13 miles north-west).
Local landmarks in Titchfield
We work in homes and buildings around West End House and The Henry Cort Community College. The nearest railway station is Fareham station, roughly 2 miles east of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include St Andrew's Castle (3.5 miles west) and Fareham Shopping Centre (2.7 miles east). Not far away are Holly Hill Woodland Park.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
Check the drainage slots in the frames are not blocked, so rain drains out rather than building up at the sealant.
Water trapped behind a failed joint can start rot in timber frames and sills. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so early resealing is worth it.
For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
For anyone letting property in or around Titchfield, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house from start to finish. For a village or hamlet like Titchfield, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Do you need window mastic in Titchfield?
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Mastic that is falling out in pieces
Schools such as Titchfield Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Why deal with it now?
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: the visit takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Titchfield, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
