Window Mastic in Aberfeldy
Problem with your window and door frames in Aberfeldy? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
How the job changes by surface
Window sills
The end joints of a sill tend to fail before the rest. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Timber windows & doors
Older timber windows in stone or brick can suit sand mastic rather than modern sealant. We’ll tell you which suits your home.

Common problems we fix in Aberfeldy
A lot of older mastic was never designed to stay flexible. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
Look out for any of the following:
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
Schools such as Breadalbane Academy are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Window mastic in Aberfeldy: local notes
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. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
In and around Aberfeldy, as anywhere, good window mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Check the mastic once a year
Timber frames need their paint kept up, because bare, wet timber moves more and pulls at the joint. Keep paint off the silicone itself.
On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Once wood has rotted, it needs repair before it can be sealed, so early resealing is worth it.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- A sash or casement that won’t close properly
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame

Common questions in Aberfeldy
What guarantee comes with window mastic in Aberfeldy?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover Aberfeldy for window mastic?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Aberfeldy is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
Yes, if the air is getting in around the frame. If it’s coming through the window seals, we’ll tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient.
Is it messy?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Most silicone can’t be painted. If you plan to paint, tell us first and we can use a paintable sealant where it suits the joint.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames for a typical job. 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, and the visit is planned around that.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
- Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
