About our window mastic in Cluny
Most frames have an outside joint and an inside one. The external joint is the weather seal; the internal joint closes the gap to the plaster and stops draughts. We seal one or both, depending on what’s needed. If you are dealing with draughts coming in around windows and doors and mastic that has split away from the wall, we can help.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Frames and glazing around Cluny
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. 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 let a flat or house near Cardenden station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Your questions about window mastic in Cluny
Is Cluny in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Cluny is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Cluny?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How long will my window job take?
Allow anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Access and the amount of old mastic make the biggest difference.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Does the work come with a guarantee?
Yes. Each job is covered for 12 months, inside or out.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Somewhere like Cluny may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We start by checking each window and door with you.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Move anything stored near the joints

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Getting a straight, even bead on an outside frame takes practice, especially upstairs. A professional job is cut out properly, backed where needed and finished neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
Why Cluny customers choose us
- One-year guarantee on every job

When something else is needed
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- Condensation trapped between the panes
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Window sills
- Composite doors
- uPVC windows
- Patio & French doors
- Timber windows & doors
- Aluminium frames
What we are called out for in Cluny
Frames are never completely still. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. If the sealant cannot stretch, it splits.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
Managing a site like Kirkcaldy High School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
What your quote should include
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Whether VAT is included
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cluny
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
