- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are in most cases. In a small place like Turners Hill, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
Window mastic in Turners Hill, done properly
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 one-year guarantee on the work. We’re often asked to deal with leaking joints at the ends of sills and cracked internal joints between frame and plaster, on aluminium frames, composite doors and window sills.
Homes in small places like Turners Hill often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

What affects the quote in Turners Hill
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- The product the joint needs
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Any mould that needs treating
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the property is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Whether it has been sealed before
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
FAQs for Turners Hill
Do you work for landlords with property near East Grinstead station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you cover smaller places like Turners Hill?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
How long will my window job take?
Allow a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Access and the amount of old mastic make the biggest difference.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Keep timber frames painted
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Don’t aim a pressure washer at the joints
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Draughts get worse, not better. As the old mastic shrinks further, more air gets through, and a cold room gets colder. Resealing closes it.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Signs you need window mastic in Turners Hill
Frames are never completely still. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
If you let a flat or house near East Grinstead station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How much experience the applicator has
- Is VAT in the price?
- How long to leave it before use
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Windows and doors in Turners Hill
With historic houses such as Gravetye Manor (about 1.6 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Turners Hill as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Managing a site like Turners Hill CofE Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Leonard, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Leave it or put it right?
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: it 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 Turners Hill, 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 is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
