Window Mastic in Whitchurch-on-Thames
Problem with your window and door frames in Whitchurch-on-Thames? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Common problems we fix in Whitchurch-on-Thames
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. Sunlight dries the surface out, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
The most common problems we see are:
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
Schools such as Whitchurch Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Windows and doors in Whitchurch-on-Thames
With historic houses such as Basildon Park (about 1.7 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Whitchurch-on-Thames 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. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Letting a property close to Pangbourne station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not aim a pressure washer at the joints
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, for as long as we advise. Don’t point a pressure washer at the joints.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
What sealant work can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

What the job involves on each surface
Composite doors
Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, and the joint around it is sealed like a window. We match the colour to the frame.
Window sills
Where a sill meets brick or render, the ends often crack first. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
