How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Clear gutters so water does not pour onto the windows
  • Renew mastic before redecorating the windows
  • Ask us before painting near the mastic
  • Check with your local planning authority if your home is listed

Check the mastic when you check the paintwork. Catching cracks early keeps repairs small.

Renewing mastic before redecorating saves doing it twice. Painting over failed mastic hides the problem for a while.

How we handle sand mastic in Woodilee Village

Burnt sand mastic is a traditional material that sits naturally against stone and brick. It’s a good fit for period properties where a modern sealant bead would stand out. We work on stone surrounds, period & listed homes and brick reveals, and people most often call us about open joints round the window box and failed mastic on an exposed elevation.

Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Woodilee Village is planned around the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Woodilee Village and across East Dunbartonshire.

Windows and doors in Woodilee Village

Woodilee Village is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for the mastic around older windows and doors to keep out. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.

Managing a site like Kirkintilloch High School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Rented homes near Lenzie station change hands often, and older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out.

What we do, step by step

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. The job normally takes a few hours per window, depending on the condition of the joints, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.

  1. We check each window surround and the condition of the joint.
  2. The joint is raked out and cleaned.
  3. Large voids are packed out.
  4. New sand mastic is applied and shaped by hand.
  5. We finish the mastic to a tidy line.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Common questions in Woodilee Village

Do you work for landlords with property near Lenzie station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Is Woodilee Village within the area you cover?

Yes, Woodilee Village is covered. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Do you guarantee sand mastic work?

Our one-year guarantee covers every job.

How long will you be here?

That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes a few hours for a single window, longer for several. We will tell you when we quote.

When will the new mastic be hard?

It takes a while. The skin forms first, and the full set comes later and we’ll give you an idea for your job.

Is it messy?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Should I check with the council before work on a listed or conservation-area home?

Your local planning authority is the one to ask. They decide whether consent is needed for work to your windows.

Leave it or put it right?

Before painting the windows, it pays to renew the mastic. Paint over cracked mastic won’t stop the gaps and traditional guidance is to leave the new mastic unpainted. Around Woodilee Village, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

What you get with us

  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

  • Fully insured

Read what affects the cost and what customers say.

Should I try it myself first?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Different surfaces, different methods

Tenement and terrace windows

Windows above ground floor need the right access. Let us know the floor and we’ll confirm access.

Sash and case windows

On a sash window, the mastic joint shows on the outside so we finish it carefully.
