Window & door mastic in Cullicudden, Highland
Window mastic across Cullicudden and nearby, with old sealant always removed completely and a 12-month guarantee.
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
For landlords and businesses
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Window mastic in Cullicudden, done properly
Behind a thin line of old mastic there’s sometimes a deep void. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that cannot flex, so we fit backing rod to set the right depth. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. We work on aluminium frames, uPVC windows and timber windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are hard, cracked sealant around windows and old mastic that has gone black or come away.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Cullicudden depends on the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Cullicudden and across Highland.

When to call us in Cullicudden
Plenty of failed mastic was poorly applied in the first place. Mastic laid onto dusty, damp or crumbling surfaces didn’t grip properly, so it comes away long before its time.
The most common problems we see are:
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- A bead that does not match the frame
In the older streets around Cullicudden Church and burial ground, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.
What your quote should include
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How long the guarantee is
- Is VAT in the price?
- How long to leave it before use
What we cannot put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Window sills
- Aluminium frames
- Patio & French doors
- Composite doors
- uPVC windows
- Timber windows & doors
Why act early in Cullicudden
Running fresh sealant over the old joint is tempting, but it will not grip old, dirty sealant. It peels before long, and water still gets in behind. The old mastic has to come out. In an older home around Cullicudden, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Outdoor work around Cullicudden depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- 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.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Your questions about window mastic in Cullicudden
Will you come out to Cullicudden?
Yes, Cullicudden is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Does living near the coast affect window mastic in Cullicudden?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Highland.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
How the job changes by surface
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. Those corners get the most care.
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. Most leaks start at the bottom corners, so they get particular care.
What affects the quote in Cullicudden
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How we’d reach the joints
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The type of property
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.

Window mastic in Cullicudden: local notes
Cullicudden is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s 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.
If you let a flat or house near Alness station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
