Window mastic in Wiston, done properly

Homes in Wiston have every kind of window: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. We work on uPVC windows, composite doors and timber windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are old mastic that has gone black or come away and white mastic on grey or black frames.

Homes in small places like Wiston 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.

Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Surface by surface

Composite doors

A composite door generally sits in a plastic outer frame, so its perimeter joint is sealed much like a window. We match the colour to the frame.

Patio & French doors

The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. Most leaks start at the bottom corners, so we pay close attention there.

Looking after it afterwards

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
  • Repaint timber before it’s bare
  • Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
  • Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints

Timber frames need their paint kept up, since wood that gets wet swells and shrinks more. Keep paint off the silicone itself.

On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so it pays to reseal before that happens.

Common problems we fix in Wiston

Some failures date back to when the windows were fitted. Sealant run over dust, wet brick or loose mortar never bonded as it should, so it comes away long before its time.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • A bead that doesn’t match the frame
  • Black, perished sealant on frames
  • Gaps left after new windows were fitted
  • Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain

If you live in an older home near All Saints Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Are they insured?
  • Is VAT in the price?

Choosing a sealant specialist

What happens on the day

Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. For a village or hamlet like Wiston, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
  2. Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
  3. Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
  4. Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
  5. The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice

When something else is needed

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
  • Damp problems in the wall away from the window
  • Faulty window hardware

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

What window mastic looks like in Wiston

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

What happens if it’s left?

Getting a straight, even bead on an outside frame takes practice, especially on upper floors. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. Around Wiston, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
