What happens on the day

Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. For a village or hamlet like Upper Froyle, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We start by checking each window and door with you.
  2. Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
  3. Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
  4. We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
  5. We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Window mastic in Upper Froyle, done properly

Frames and walls do not move together. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. So the sealant has to stretch and recover, which is why we use a low-modulus product. If you’re dealing with sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and mastic that has split away from the wall, we can help.

Homes in small places like Upper Froyle often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Window mastic in Upper Froyle: local notes

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary of the Assumption, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. For landlords with property near Bentley (Hampshire) station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Upper Froyle is about 3 miles north-east of Alton, in Hampshire. From the centre of Upper Froyle to the outskirts, window mastic is available for homes and businesses alike. 683 places in Hampshire are on our list, from the larger towns to small villages. For nearby work, see our Reading page.

Common problems we fix in Upper Froyle

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.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Leaking joints at the ends of sills
  • Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
  • Gaps left after new windows were fitted
  • Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame

If you look after a building such as Eggar's School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

What to look for in a quote

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Are they insured?

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Look round the frames every year or so
  • Don’t paint over the silicone
  • Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
  • Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic

Check the drainage slots in the frames aren’t blocked, so rain drains out rather than building up at the sealant.

On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so it pays to reseal before that happens.

Honest limits

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before we start. It will not solve:

  • A failed sealed unit that has misted up
  • Faulty window hardware
  • Soft or decayed wood in the frame

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Upper Froyle

Do you cover Upper Froyle for window mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Upper Froyle is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Upper Froyle?

Yes, Upper Froyle is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can resealing stop a draught around my window?

In many cases. The gap between frame and wall is a common source of draughts, and resealing inside and out closes it.

What information do you need?

Let us know what needs doing and where. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

Do you guarantee window mastic?

Yes. Each job is covered for 12 months.

How do I get a quote for window mastic in Upper Froyle?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.

Different surfaces, different methods

Aluminium frames

Coated aluminium needs a compatible sealant and we avoid acetoxy silicones, which can react with some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.

Patio & French doors

Water at the foot of a door frame isn’t always the mastic: blocked drain slots, worn brush seals and threshold details can let water in too. We check before we reseal.

Landlord and commercial work in Upper Froyle

Landlords and agents in Upper Froyle can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
