Window Mastic in West Lavington
We cover West Lavington for mastic around window and door frames, sills and patio doors. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Mastic that is falling out in pieces
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Somewhere as small as West Lavington, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- 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
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

About our window mastic in West Lavington
There are two joints on most windows. The external joint is the weather seal; the internal joint closes the gap to the plaster and stops draughts. Either or both can be done. Common call-outs are for rain getting in at the frame or under the sill and whistling draughts around closed windows, across uPVC windows, aluminium frames and composite doors.
Homes in small places like West Lavington often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Landlord and commercial work in West Lavington
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What happens if it’s left?
Not every sealant suits a window. Interior caulk and bathroom silicone are not made for exterior frame joints. A low-modulus exterior sealant keeps its stretch through hot and cold weather. In a small place like West Lavington, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

When to call us in West Lavington
Frames are never completely still. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
Homes close to The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalene include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Before you book anyone
- Are they insured?
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Is VAT in the price?
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
When it isn’t the sealant
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep timber frames painted
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
Timber frames need their paint kept up, because bare, wet timber moves more and pulls at the joint. Keep paint off the silicone itself.
A failed joint lets water into the wall a little at a time. Often the first sign is a damp patch inside or flaking paint on the reveal. Early resealing stops it reaching that point.

Frames and glazing around West Lavington
Historic houses like Cowdray House (about 0.6 miles north) are a reminder that the area around West Lavington has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you look after a building such as Midhurst CofE Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
