About our sand mastic in Kirkmichael
Silicone on a period window often looks wrong and isn’t always the right material. Sand mastic gives a finish that matches the age of the house and we can swap the silicone for it. If you have silicone on a period window that looks wrong and wind and rain getting in round a sash window, we can help, whatever the surface.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Kirkmichael is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours for a single window, longer for several. Around Kirkmichael, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- We look at the surrounds with you and agree the joints to renew.
- Old mastic and any loose material are raked out.
- Deep gaps are packed so the mastic sits at the right depth.
- The sand mastic is mixed and pressed into the joint by hand.
- We dress the finish so it sits neatly against the masonry.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in

Frames and glazing around Kirkmichael
With historic houses such as Dirnanean House (about 2.3 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Kirkmichael as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. 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.
Around Kirkmichael, as everywhere, sand mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you live in an older home near Duff Memorial Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Kirkmichael: your questions answered
Do you cover Kirkmichael for sand mastic?
Yes, Kirkmichael is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is Kirkmichael within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Kirkmichael and the rest of Perth and Kinross.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will tell you what we’re using.
Can sand mastic be painted?
The usual advice is to leave sand mastic unpainted. If you are redecorating the window, ask us first and we will advise.
Which is right for my windows, sand mastic or modern sealant?
For period timber windows in stone or brick, sand mastic is often the better fit. Modern frames normally suit a flexible sealant, and we’ll explain why.
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Leave it or put it right?
Cement-based fillers and modern sealants do not always suit a period surround. Sand mastic matches what was there and that can be important for listed homes. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Don’t paint over the new mastic
- Have rotten timber repaired before new mastic goes in
- Plan mastic work ahead of painting
- Make sure water runs off the sill
Check the mastic when you check the paintwork. Catching cracks early keeps repairs small.
It’s best to renew mastic before painting the windows. Painting over failed mastic hides the problem for a while.
