Aberargie Window Mastic
Window and door frames in Aberargie need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
About our window mastic in Aberargie
A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. A new joint stops the air getting through. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we’ll tell you. We work on composite doors, aluminium frames and uPVC windows, and the jobs we see most are whistling draughts around closed windows and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Perth and Kinross.

Aberargie: your questions answered
Is window mastic in a coastal place like Aberargie any different?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Do you cover smaller places like Aberargie?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Do you seal inside as well as outside?
Yes, we do both. Inside, the joint between frame and plaster is sealed neatly.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
What does window mastic cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing and where.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels across Perth and Kinross.
What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Outdoor work around Aberargie depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear the area around the work

When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Faulty window hardware
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the property is
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The problem you’ve noticed
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.
Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Check the mastic once a year
Silicone can’t generally be painted, so mention any painting plans before any work starts. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.
Look out for the warning signs: cracks in the mastic, gaps you can see light through, damp on the reveal or mould around the inside of the frame. Any of these is worth a call.
Window mastic in Aberargie: local notes
Aberargie is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on the mastic around window and door frames, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Whether the job is in Aberargie itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish. Around Aberargie, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What the job involves on each surface
Window sills
The end joints of a sill tend to fail before the rest. We reseal them so rain cannot run into the wall.
Composite doors
If the door itself is draughty, the issue may be the door seals or hinges rather than the frame mastic. We will tell you if that’s what we find.

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
