The process
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are in most cases. Somewhere like Wycombe Marsh needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Every joint is checked before we leave.

Window mastic in Wycombe Marsh
The new joint doesn’t have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. We work on composite doors, patio & French doors and aluminium frames, and common reasons people get in touch are mastic that has split away from the wall and leaking joints at the ends of sills.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Wycombe Marsh is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Common problems we fix in Wycombe Marsh
Frames are never completely still. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
For landlords with property near High Wycombe station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How long the guarantee is
- How hidden problems are handled
- Whether they’re fully insured
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Check the mastic once a year
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Signs to watch for: cracks in the mastic, gaps you can see light through, damp on the reveal or mould around the inside of the frame. If you notice one, it’s time to get the joint looked at.
What the job involves on each surface
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. We pay most attention there.
Patio & French doors
Door frames take knocks and movement every time the doors are used. A flexible sealant copes with that.
Questions from Wycombe Marsh
I let a flat near High Wycombe station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Wycombe Marsh within the area you cover?
Yes. Wycombe Marsh is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
Yes, if the air is getting in around the frame. If it’s through the window’s own seals or a hinge, that’s a different fix, and we will say so.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.

Wycombe Marsh homes and the weather
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. With historic houses such as Hughenden Manor (about 2.8 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Wycombe Marsh as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
Homes close to Church of St Anne include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. Managing a site like Marsh School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Leave it or put it right?
Not every sealant suits a window. Interior caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t made for exterior frame joints. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. In a small place like Wycombe Marsh, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. 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.
