Frames and glazing around Baile Ailein
Baile Ailein is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on the mastic around window and door frames, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so give us as much notice as you can.
Around Baile Ailein, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. Whether the job is in Baile Ailein itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Different surfaces, different methods
Timber windows & doors
Soft or rotten wood cannot be sealed successfully. If we find rot, we will tell you before going ahead, as that is a job for a joiner.
Window sills
The end joints of a sill tend to fail before the rest. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Baile Ailein questions
Is Baile Ailein within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do window mastic in Baile Ailein?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Baile Ailein is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?
Yes. Inside, the joint between frame and plaster is sealed neatly, using a paintable sealant if you want to decorate.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
If the draught is coming in around the frame, yes. If it’s coming through the window seals, we will tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long before the joint can be used?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Baile Ailein and the rest of Na h-Eileanan Siar.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Somewhere like Baile Ailein may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

How we quote for window mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The product the joint needs
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Access and height
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The rough size of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
- The problem you’ve noticed
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
Look out for the warning signs: cracks in the mastic, gaps you can see light through, damp on the reveal or mould around the inside of the frame. If you notice one, it’s time to get the joint looked at.
