Sand mastic for sash & case windows in Westfield, North Lanarkshire
Our applicators work in Westfield on traditional burnt sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors in stone and brick. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Modern sealant on a period surround
- Old cement repairs round a window that have failed
- Mastic that needs renewing before redecorating
What happens if it’s left?
Cement-based fillers and modern sealants do not always suit a period surround. Sand mastic is the like-for-like choice, which can matter on listed and conservation-area homes. Around Westfield, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
Why Westfield clients choose us
- Tidy, careful work
- We’re fully insured

How we handle sand mastic in Westfield
We work across Westfield renewing sand mastic on sash windows and doors. Each joint is raked out, prepared and pointed by hand for a neat, traditional finish. We work on timber door frames, stone surrounds and brick reveals, and common reasons people get in touch are tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint and cracked mastic round a front door frame.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Westfield is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Common problems we fix in Westfield
Water gets into small cracks in the mastic and pushes it out. Exposed elevations usually fail first.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look
- Open joints round the window box
- Failed mastic on an exposed elevation
- Mastic round period door frames that has failed
For landlords with property near Croy station, any sash windows need sound mastic to keep draughts and rain out.

Windows and doors in Westfield
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
If you look after a building such as Greenfaulds High School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Look over the window mastic once a year
- Do not paint over the new mastic
- Find out about consent before window work on a listed home
- Clear gutters so water doesn’t pour onto the windows
Make sure water drains away from the window surround. Constant wetting wears the mastic faster.
Gaps round a sash box let in draughts and rain. Left, the gap tends to get bigger.
