Window mastic in Walton Manor, done properly
A window frame and the wall around it expand and shrink at different rates. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. That is why the joint needs a flexible, low-modulus sealant rather than something rigid. Common call-outs are for water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and mastic that has split away from the wall, across uPVC windows, window sills and aluminium frames.
In smaller places like Walton Manor, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. The right sealant depends on the frame and on what it sits in.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Why it’s worth doing now in Walton Manor
Once mastic fails, rain can get between the frame and the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. Resealing now is a small job by comparison. In a smaller place like Walton Manor, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

How the job changes by surface
Aluminium frames
Aluminium needs a sealant that bonds to coated metal, and acetoxy silicones are not used, as they can attack some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.
uPVC windows
Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. We cut it out, back any deep gaps and reseal properly.

What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. A visit to Walton Manor is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by checking each window and door with you.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

When to call us in Walton Manor
Water runs down the glass onto the sill, so the sill ends and the joint below the frame are common leak points. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
Managing a site like St Aloysius' Catholic Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Walton Manor homes and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Holywell Manor (about 1 mile south-east) are a reminder that the area around Walton Manor 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.
Letting a property close to Oxford station? Then sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. Historic houses such as Holywell Manor, about 1 mile south-east, show how far back building around Walton Manor goes.

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Check the mastic once a year
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
Most silicone sealants won’t take paint, so mention any painting plans before work begins. We can use a paintable sealant where that matters.
A small gap around a frame only grows. As the old mastic shrinks further, more air gets through, and heat escapes around the frame. A new joint closes it up.
