Our window mastic service in Aberdeen
Around Aberdeen we seal all kinds of frames: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, along with patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. We work on composite doors, aluminium frames and patio & French doors, and the jobs we see most are hard, cracked sealant around windows and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door.
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house.
- 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.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.

Frames and weather across Aberdeen
Across Aberdeen, from Rosemount, Berryden and Ferryhill outwards, frames range from older timber to modern uPVC and aluminium. Each needs the right sealant, and every joint wears out eventually.
Our work covers the whole of Scotland, Aberdeen included. Longer journeys are planned in advance, and outdoor work around the weather. Parts of Aberdeen are on or near the coast, where wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are hard on outside sealant. Walls facing the sea are usually the first to need attention.
Aberdeen: Rented homes near Aberdeen station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets. If you look after a building such as Aberdeen Grammar School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What affects the cost of window mastic
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether the work is at height
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The product the joint needs
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The address or postcode of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Whether it has been sealed before
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
Sills catch the water running down the glass, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. They’re cut out and resealed with exterior sealant.
uPVC windows
Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. It comes out, deep gaps get backing rod and the joint is resealed.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Check the mastic once a year
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.

Your questions about window mastic in Aberdeen
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, where they can be reached safely. Tell us about access when you get in touch so we can plan the job.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
