How it works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are in most cases. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
- Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
Window mastic in Wallend
A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. A new joint stops the air getting through and quietens the whistle on windy days. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include cracked internal joints between frame and plaster and cracked sealant at the sill ends, across composite doors, window sills and aluminium frames.
London has a lot of flats and conversions, where windows are often on upper floors. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Do you need window mastic in Wallend?
Mastic ages in the weather. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
If you live in an older home near St John the Baptist's Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.
Questions to ask before you book
- What product goes in the joint
- How hidden problems are handled
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it

Window mastic in Wallend: 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. With historic houses such as Eastbury Manor House (about 1.5 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Wallend 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.
As a London address, Wallend can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Rented homes near Barking station change hands often, and sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Why deal with it now?
A cracked joint around a frame lets rain into the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. A reseal is a much smaller job. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Putting it right early is much less trouble.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

What affects the cost of window mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many areas need sealing
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The address or postcode of the job
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work.
What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint

Wallend: your questions answered
I let a flat near Barking station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Wallend?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
What does window mastic cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Early resealing stops it reaching that point.
