About sand mastic in Aberdeenshire

Sand mastic skins over fairly quickly but full hardening takes longer. Traditionally, sand mastic is left unpainted, so ask us before you decorate. We work on period & listed homes, brick reveals and tenement windows, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps round a timber door in stone or brick and silicone on a period window that looks wrong.

At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows, depending on the amount of work.

Each surround is checked first.
The joint is raked out and cleaned.
We fill deep gaps so the new mastic isn’t too thick.
We point the joint with sand mastic by hand.
The finish is dressed neatly.

Windows and doors across Aberdeenshire

In Aberdeenshire, sand mastic work takes in houses, flats, conservatories and commercial glazing, in Peterhead, Inverurie and Montrose and well beyond. Outside sealant needs a dry, clean joint, so the work is planned around the weather.

Homes in Scotland come with their own details: sash and case windows, harled walls and, in the towns and cities, tenement flats. Aberdeenshire is part of the area we cover across Scotland. Aberdeenshire includes coastal places, where outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland. Walls facing the sea are usually the first to need attention.

Peterhead: In and around Peterhead, as anywhere, good sand mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For jobs in and around Peterhead, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Quotes for sand mastic in Aberdeenshire

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

The old material and how stubborn it is
Any mould that needs treating
How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
The product the joint needs

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Asking for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

Where the property is
What’s wrong with the joints now
Any previous sealing or DIY work
Roughly how big the job is

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

What sealant work cannot fix

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

Timber that has rotted
Planning or listed building consent (your local planning authority decides)
Masonry that needs repairing

Surface by surface

Brick reveals

Sand mastic is also used where timber frames meet brick. It gives a traditional finish.

Stone surrounds

The stone is treated with care when the old mastic comes out.

Why deal with it now?

An open joint round the frame lets weather in. Water can get to the frame and the masonry, so dealing with it now protects both.

Questions from Aberdeenshire

Do you offer different sealant colours?

In most cases you can choose. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before work begins.

Is it possible to take out silicone and use sand mastic instead?

Usually, yes. Once the silicone is out and the joint prepared, sand mastic is applied by hand.

How do I get a quote for sand mastic in Aberdeenshire?

We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.

Can I paint the new mastic?

The usual advice is to leave sand mastic unpainted. Ask us before you decorate around it and we’ll talk you through it.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once.

What exactly is sand mastic?

It’s a mix of sand and a linseed-oil-based binder. It’s applied by hand and finished to sit neatly against the masonry.
