About our window mastic in Brodick
There are two joints on most windows. Outside, the mastic keeps rain out; the internal joint closes the gap to the plaster and stops draughts. Either or both can be done. We work on patio & French doors, uPVC windows and window sills, and the jobs we see most are sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and gaps between the frame and the inside reveal.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Brodick depends on the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What happens on the day
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Outside jobs in Brodick need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Related advice
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.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
Leaks normally show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Common problems we fix in Brodick
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, leaving a hairline gap down one side.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
Around Brodick, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Brodick
A cracked joint around a frame lets rain into the wall. Left long enough, it can stain inside walls, spoil plaster and rot wooden frames. Resealing now is a small job by comparison. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.

Windows and doors in Brodick
Brodick 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. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
If you live in an older home near Parish Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.

Questions from Brodick
Is window mastic in a coastal place like Brodick any different?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.
Do you cover Brodick for window mastic?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Brodick is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
How many windows can you do in a day?
Allow a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Access and how stubborn the old mastic is affect the time most.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
