Window mastic in Wood Street Village, done properly
Frames and walls don’t move together. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. So the sealant has to stretch and recover, which is why we use a low-modulus product. If you’re dealing with black, perished sealant on frames and white mastic on grey or black frames, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Wood Street Village is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wood Street Village
Failed mastic isn’t 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. Around Wood Street Village, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Questions from Wood Street Village
Will you come out to Wood Street Village?
Yes, Wood Street Village is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Wanborough station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Does the work come with a guarantee?
Yes. Each job is covered for 12 months, inside or out.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Is the new sealant paintable?
Not generally, if it’s silicone. We choose the product with your decorating in mind, so mention it when you book.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
What we’re called out for in Wood Street Village
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. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A bead that does not match the frame
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
Rented homes near Wanborough 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.
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee
- Who turns up on the day
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first

What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames from start to finish.

Windows and doors in Wood Street Village
With historic houses such as Wanborough Manor (about 1.9 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Wood Street Village as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. 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.
If you look after a building such as Wood Street Infant School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. In the older streets around St Alban's Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the joint
Silicone cannot generally be painted, so if you are planning to paint the frames or walls, tell us beforehand. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.
Leaks generally show up in wet, windy weather, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- Faulty window hardware
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.
