Your questions about window mastic in Waltham Forest

Do you cover Waltham Forest for window mastic?

Yes, Waltham Forest is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

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

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

What should I tell you?

Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Will resealing my frames help with draughts?

Often, yes. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and sealing the inside and outside joints closes that path.

Do you work on first-floor windows?

Generally, yes. Access is planned before we start.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Waltham Forest.

Window mastic in Waltham Forest

Around Waltham Forest we seal all kinds of frames: uPVC, aluminium, timber and composite, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. If you are dealing with water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and gaps where the sill meets the wall, we can put it right, on timber windows & doors, uPVC windows and aluminium frames alike.

Much of London’s older housing was built with timber sash windows, some still in place and some long since replaced. Whatever is in the opening now, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps the weather out, in Waltham Forest as anywhere.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Windows and doors in Waltham Forest

With historic houses such as Forty Hall (about 4.7 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Waltham Forest as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so it’s worth checking before booking.

Waltham Forest is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Letting a property close to Chingford station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets. In the older streets around St John the Baptist Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

What the job involves on each surface

Patio & French doors

The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so we pay close attention there.

Composite doors

Front doors take the weather head on. We pay most attention there.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Waltham Forest

If you manage several properties in or around Waltham Forest, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.

Why it’s worth doing now in Waltham Forest

Draughts and leaks do not always mean new windows. Where the frames are sound, new mastic generally deals with draughts and leaks at the edges. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we’ll tell you. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Waltham Forest, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll talk you through it.

Why book with us

  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • You choose the colour before work begins
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Sealant colour chosen to suit

See our cost guide or customer reviews.

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
  • Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
  • Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
  • Do not aim a pressure washer at the joints

Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.

Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. Often the first sign is a damp patch inside or flaking paint on the reveal. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.

The process

We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames, and we explain the cure time before we leave. For a job in Waltham Forest, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.

  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. A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
  5. Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

When it is not the sealant

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Soft or decayed wood in the frame
  • A failed sealed unit that has misted up
  • Damp problems in the wall away from the window

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
