Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Keep timber frames painted
- Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked
- Do not paint over the silicone
Check the drainage slots in the frames are not blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.
On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Once wood has rotted, it needs repair before it can be sealed, so it pays to reseal before that happens.

Surface by surface
Timber windows & doors
Older timber windows in stone or brick can suit sand mastic rather than modern sealant. We can talk through the options.
Aluminium frames
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.

What we’re called out for in West Grinstead
Sills take more water than any other part of a window, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. When that sealant fails, water gets into the wall or under the frame.
Look out for any of the following:
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
Homes close to Shrine Church of Our Lady of Consolation and St Francis include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Somewhere as small as West Grinstead, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
