Window mastic in Edinburgh: how it works

Whether it’s one leaking patio door or every frame on the house, you will get a clear quote before we start. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us how many frames there are and how they’re reached for window mastic in Edinburgh. We work on composite doors, aluminium frames and uPVC windows, and people most often call us about hard, cracked sealant around windows and rain getting in at the frame or under the sill.

There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house in most cases.

We check how each frame can be reached safely.
All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.

Windows and doors across Edinburgh

Across Edinburgh, from Leith, Bonnington and Greenside outwards, frames range from older timber to modern uPVC and aluminium. Each needs the right sealant, and every joint wears out eventually.

Homes in Scotland come with their own details: sash and case windows, harled walls and, in the towns and cities, tenement flats. Edinburgh is part of the area we cover across Scotland. Along the coast in Edinburgh, holiday lets and guest houses can have bathrooms in near-constant use, which is hard on sealant and grout, and the weather is hard on the outside too.

Edinburgh: For landlords with property near Haymarket station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. If you look after a building such as Tollcross Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Why act early?

Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially upstairs. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Edinburgh

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

Should I try it myself first?

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Quotes for window mastic in Edinburgh

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

The number of rooms or windows

How easy the joints are to reach
Mould in or behind the old joints

Asking for a quote

You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

A few photos by email, if you can
What’s wrong with the joints now
How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

Make sure the drainage slots aren’t blocked
Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
Don’t paint over the silicone
Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside

Check the drainage slots in the frames are not blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.

Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. Resealing closes it.
