Windows and doors in Wingham Well
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Goodnestone Park (about 1.8 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Wingham Well 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.
If you live in an older home near St Mary's Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Rented homes near Adisham station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
Wingham Well is about 5 miles east of Canterbury, in Kent. Wingham Well gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

How we handle window mastic in Wingham Well
Homes in Wingham Well have every kind of window: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, along with patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. If you are dealing with whistling draughts around closed windows and rushed sealant from a window installation, we can put it right, on aluminium frames, uPVC windows and window sills alike.
Somewhere as small as Wingham Well, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
Leaks usually show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.
What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house, and the area is left clean. Somewhere like Wingham Well needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- 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
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Why it’s worth doing now in Wingham Well
Failed mastic is not a reason to replace sound windows. Where the frames are sound, new mastic normally deals with draughts and leaks at the edges. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we’ll tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wingham Well can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
What you get with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- Tidy, careful work
- Colour picked to suit the job

Different surfaces, different methods
Composite doors
An exposed front door gets wind-driven rain, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. Those corners get the most care.
Patio & French doors
Patio and French doors have the longest joints on most houses. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so we pay close attention there.
Common questions in Wingham Well
Will you come out to Wingham Well?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Adisham station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
When to call us in Wingham Well
Some failures date back to when the windows were fitted. Sealant run over dust, wet brick or loose mortar never bonded as it should, and it lets go sooner than it should.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wingham Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
