About window mastic in Falkirk
Mr Mastic’s applicators have more than 20 years’ experience with window and door sealants. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and we give a 12-month guarantee on the work. We are often asked to deal with rushed sealant from a window installation and gaps where the sill meets the wall, on patio & French doors, timber windows & doors and aluminium frames.
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, and we explain the cure time before we leave.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- All the failed sealant is cut away.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Pricing in Falkirk

What’s near Falkirk
We work in homes and buildings around Callendar Park, The Goose On Newmarket pub and Comely Park School and the streets around them. Nearby too are Falkirk High School (0.7 miles south-west) and St. Francis Xavier's Roman Catholic Church (within half a mile north). Falkirk has its own railway station: Falkirk Grahamston station. Well-known places in the area include Torwood Castle (4 miles north-west) and Falkirk Community Hospital (under half a mile south-west). Not far away are Callendar Lake.
Windows and doors across Falkirk
Falkirk has everything from older homes with timber frames to newer ones with uPVC. Exposed walls are where window sealant usually fails first.
Scotland has its own building regulations, and homes here bring their own details: sash and case windows, harled walls and, in the towns and cities, tenement flats. Falkirk is part of the area we cover across Scotland. Coastal guest houses and holiday lets in Falkirk can see heavy use in busy months, which is hard on sealant and grout.
Falkirk: For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Comely Park School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Falkirk Grahamston station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
Leave it or put it right?
Choosing the product is half the job. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t designed for outside joints that move. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost.
Questions to ask before you book
- How much experience the applicator has
- The length of the guarantee
- What preparation is included
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Keep paint off silicone joints
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
A small gap around a frame only grows. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and heat escapes around the frame. Resealing closes it.
How we quote for window mastic
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number and length of the joints
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether the work is at height
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- The rough size of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Landlords and letting agents in Falkirk can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- A sash or casement that won’t close properly
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- Condensation trapped between the panes
Common questions in Falkirk
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
Often, yes. The gap between frame and wall is a common source of draughts, and resealing inside and out closes it.
