How we handle sand mastic in Garmond
Silicone on a period window often looks wrong and does not suit the building. Sand mastic gives a finish that matches the age of the house and we can swap the silicone for it. Common call-outs are for mastic that needs renewing before redecorating and modern sealant on a period surround, across timber door frames, brick reveals and stone surrounds.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Garmond is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Advice
Why act early in Garmond
Draughts round a sash window aren’t always the sashes. Gaps between the frame and the wall can be just as bad, and renewing the mastic closes them. In an older home around Garmond, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Garmond homes and the weather
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
In the older streets around Monquhitter Parish Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.
