What window mastic looks like in Drummuir
Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
In and around Drummuir, as anywhere, good window mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

About our window mastic in Drummuir
Whether it’s one leaking patio door or every frame on the house, the work is priced before anything is done. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us how many frames there are and how they’re reached for window mastic in Drummuir. If you have sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and mastic that has split away from the wall, we can help, on patio & French doors, uPVC windows and aluminium frames alike.
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.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Leave it or put it right?
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. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.

Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The type of property
- Where the property is
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on. Expect the work to take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any parking rules near the property
Getting a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.

Questions from Drummuir
Will you come out to Drummuir?
Yes, Drummuir is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is Drummuir in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Drummuir is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Can resealing stop a draught around my window?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We check where the draught is before any work starts.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Do you need window mastic in Drummuir?
Some failures date back to when the windows were fitted. Sealant run over dust, wet brick or loose mortar didn’t grip properly, so it comes away long before its time.
Look out for any of the following:
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
In the older streets around Botriphnie Parish Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Keep timber frames painted
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Don’t paint over the silicone
Timber frames need their paint kept up, since wood that gets wet swells and shrinks more. Keep paint off the silicone itself.
Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and heat escapes around the frame. Resealing closes it.
