Window mastic for homes and businesses in Croy
Homes in Croy have every kind of window: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. We work on composite doors, patio & French doors and timber windows & doors, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps left after new windows were fitted and gaps where the sill meets the wall.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain, so the mastic there works hard.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Highland.

Croy homes and the weather
Croy is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on the mastic around window and door frames, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
If you live in an older home near Croy Parish Church Of Scotland, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. If you let a flat or house near Inverness Airport station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

How the job changes by surface
Composite doors
Draughts round the door leaf normally come from worn seals or adjustment, not the mastic. We’ll tell you if that is what we find.
uPVC windows
Some uPVC windows were sealed at fitting with a quick bead that never bonded. We cut it out, back any deep gaps and reseal properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Croy
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Croy and across Highland. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames for a typical job. Somewhere like Croy may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Related advice
Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Common questions in Croy
Does living near the coast affect window mastic in Croy?
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 smaller places like Croy?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Honest limits
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- A sash or casement that will not close properly
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Composite doors
- uPVC windows
- Aluminium frames
- Timber windows & doors
- Patio & French doors
- Window sills
What happens if it’s left?
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. A reseal is a much smaller job. In an older home around Croy, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.
