Window mastic across Aberdeenshire: what to expect

Mr Mastic’s applicators have more than 20 years’ experience with window and door sealants. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and we give a 12-month guarantee on the work. We work on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and composite doors, and common reasons people get in touch are damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain and cold air getting in at the frame edge.

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are from start to finish.

First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.

What affects the price in Aberdeenshire

Window mastic across Aberdeenshire: local notes

Our window mastic work across Aberdeenshire covers homes, flats and businesses, in Peterhead, Inverurie and Montrose and well beyond. Every outside joint is sealed dry and clean, so the forecast plays its part.

The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, but outside joints take plenty of weather everywhere. Sealants for jobs in Aberdeenshire are chosen with that in mind. Aberdeenshire includes coastal places, where outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland. Joints on seaward walls tend to fail first.

Peterhead: In and around Peterhead, as anywhere, good window mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For jobs in and around Peterhead, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

When something else is needed

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint

How the job changes by surface

Aluminium frames

Metal frames expand in the sun and are often slim, with little room for error. A tidy bead in anthracite grey, black or a matching colour keeps the clean look.

Composite doors

Front doors take the weather head on, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. We pay most attention there.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together.

Landlords and agents in Aberdeenshire can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Why act early?

Redecorating is a good moment to renew the mastic. A clean new bead makes new paint or render look finished.

What we’re called out for in Aberdeenshire

Every frame moves through the day. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

Cracked sealant at the sill ends
Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
Hard, cracked sealant around windows
Untidy mastic left by window fitters

FAQs for Aberdeenshire

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. More than one area can be quoted together.

Is it worth trying it myself?

That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we’re fully insured.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
