How we handle window mastic in Cammachmore
Every window and door frame has a gap around it, and mastic is what closes it. When it cracks, hardens or pulls away, draughts and rain get in. The old mastic is removed and the joint resealed with a flexible exterior sealant. Common call-outs are for white mastic on grey or black frames and rushed sealant from a window installation, across timber windows & doors, composite doors and patio & French doors.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Cammachmore depends on the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Cammachmore: your questions answered
Will you come out to Cammachmore?
Yes. Cammachmore is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Does the coastal weather in Cammachmore affect outside sealant?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
What information do you need?
Let us know what needs doing and where. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
Keep the new mastic undisturbed while it cures, for as long as we advise. Don’t point a pressure washer at the joints.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.
What we can’t put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- uPVC windows
- Timber windows & doors
- Aluminium frames
- Composite doors
- Patio & French doors
- Window sills
Why act early in Cammachmore
Resealing frames is a short job: the visit takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. In a place like Cammachmore, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Cammachmore homes and the weather
Cammachmore is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Managing a site like Portlethen Academy? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Portlethen station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

How the job changes by surface
Timber windows & doors
Wood swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it dries, so a flexible sealant is essential. The paint or stain needs to be sound where the sealant meets it.
uPVC windows
Some uPVC windows were sealed at fitting with a quick bead that never bonded. It comes out, deep gaps get backing rod and the joint is resealed.
The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, depending on how much there is to do. Outdoor work around Cammachmore depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
