Our window mastic service in Glasgow

A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. Resealing that joint can make a room feel noticeably less draughty. Where the air is getting in through the window itself, we will say so. We are often asked to deal with gaps left after new windows were fitted and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door, on aluminium frames, patio & French doors and timber windows & doors.

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are.

We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
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 Glasgow

Homes across Glasgow range from period properties with timber or sash windows to new builds with uPVC. Exposed walls are where window sealant usually fails first, wherever they are in Glasgow.

We work across all of Scotland, from the cities to the islands, and Glasgow is part of that. Journeys are planned ahead, and outside jobs are booked around the forecast.

Glasgow: Schools such as Our Lady and St Margaret's Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you let a flat or house near Anderston station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

When something else is needed

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

Damp problems in the wall away from the window
Faulty window hardware
Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)

For landlords and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

Different surfaces, different methods

Window sills

Masonry sills can have joints where water gets in, including the one between the sill and the frame above. We seal those with a sealant suited to masonry.

Patio & French doors

Patio and French doors have the longest joints on most houses. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so they get particular care.

Why deal with it now?

Not every sealant suits a window. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone aren’t designed for outside joints that move. A low-modulus exterior sealant keeps its stretch through hot and cold weather.

What affects the cost of window mastic

You will get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:

How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Which sealant suits the joint
The number and length of the joints
When we can work, for business premises

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Any access issues, like height or stairs
Photos by email, if that’s easy
What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
The rough size of the job

FAQs for Glasgow

Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?

Yes, we choose a colour to suit the frame. Grey and black frames get grey or black sealant, and wood-effect frames generally suit brown.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.

Can you reach windows above the ground floor?

Yes, if safe access is possible. For high or awkward windows, we’ll tell you what access is needed.

What does window mastic cost?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.

Will there be a smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.

How long before the joint can be used?

It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
