Landlord and commercial work in Upshire
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Upshire, 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.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us about any water getting in

What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- Condensation trapped between the panes
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- uPVC windows
- Timber windows & doors
- Window sills
- Composite doors
- Patio & French doors
- Aluminium frames
Surface by surface
uPVC windows
We clean the frame edge carefully so the plastic is not marked, then the new bead is laid against the frame and the wall and tooled smooth.
Aluminium frames
Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the bottom joint sees the most water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
Common problems we fix in Upshire
Plenty of failed mastic was poorly applied in the first place. Sealant run over dust, wet brick or loose mortar didn’t grip properly, so it comes away long before its time.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Thomas, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- The length of the guarantee
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Windows and doors in Upshire
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Hill Hall (about 4.7 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Upshire has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
If you look after a building such as Upshire Primary Foundation School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Cheshunt station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
