We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • A failed sealed unit that has misted up
  • A sash or casement that will not close properly
  • A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

Window mastic in Upper Bush, done properly

Homes in Upper Bush have every kind of window: uPVC, aluminium, timber and composite, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. We work on uPVC windows, patio & French doors and window sills, and people most often call us about rushed sealant from a window installation and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door.

Around Upper Bush, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Medway.

Quotes for window mastic in Upper Bush

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How many areas need sealing
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The size of the job

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Asking for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • The address or postcode of the job

There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Why deal with it now?

Choosing the product is half the job. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone are not designed for outside joints that move. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. Older cottages and farmhouses around Upper Bush can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we do, step by step

There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Somewhere as small as Upper Bush, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
  2. The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
  3. Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
  4. The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
  5. We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.

Preparing for the visit

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Tell us about any water getting in

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

FAQs for Upper Bush

I let a flat near Cuxton station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

What does window mastic cost?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.

What do you put in the joint?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.

What should I tell you?

Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.

What the job involves on each surface

uPVC windows

We clean the frame edge carefully so the plastic is not marked, then the sealant goes in between frame and wall.

Composite doors

Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, and the joint around it is sealed like a window. The bead is colour-matched to the frame.

Upper Bush homes and the weather

Historic houses like Starkey Castle (about 1.4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Upper Bush has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

For landlords with property near Cuxton station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. Schools such as Cuxton Community Infant School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Michael and All Angels, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Keeping the joints in good condition

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
  • Keep timber frames painted
  • Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
  • Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant

Silicone can’t usually be painted, so if you’re planning to paint the frames or walls, tell us beforehand. We can use a paintable sealant where that matters.

A failed joint lets water into the wall a little at a time. Often the first sign is a damp patch inside or flaking paint on the reveal. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.
