How we handle window mastic in Wouldham
The mastic around a window or door seals the gap between the frame and the wall. When it cracks, hardens or pulls away, draughts and rain get in. The old mastic is removed and the joint resealed with a flexible exterior sealant. If you are dealing with mastic that’s falling out in pieces and cold air getting in at the frame edge, we can put it right.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Wouldham is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Wouldham and across Medway.

Your questions about window mastic in Wouldham
Do you work for landlords with property near Halling station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Wouldham in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Wouldham is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Does the work come with a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?
Yes. Grey and black frames get grey or black sealant, and wood-effect frames usually suit brown.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Do you seal inside as well as outside?
Yes. Draughts often come through the inside gap too, so sealing both is often worthwhile.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
Stone and concrete sills have their own joints, including the one between the sill and the frame above. Those are sealed with a product suited to stone or concrete.
Timber windows & doors
Older timber windows in stone or brick can suit sand mastic rather than modern sealant. We can talk through the options.

How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. In a small place like Wouldham, access is usually the main thing to plan. 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.
- Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

What else we do in Wouldham
What window mastic looks like in Wouldham
Historic houses like Starkey Castle (about 0.9 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Wouldham has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Managing a site like Halling Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. In the older streets around Church of All Saints, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wouldham
Draughts and leaks do not always mean new windows. If the frames and glass are in good order, resealing the joints is often all that’s needed. Problems with the glass or gaskets are for a window company, and we’ll say so. In a small place like Wouldham, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
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.
Common problems we fix in Wouldham
Every frame moves through the day. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
Letting a property close to Halling station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
