Window mastic near Dyce

Window mastic in Dyce

Colour matters on a frame. We can seal in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. If you’re dealing with old mastic that has gone black or come away and draughts coming in around windows and doors, we can help, on window sills, patio & French doors and timber windows & doors alike.

Older stone-built tenements in Scotland’s cities were built with sash and case windows, though many have since been replaced. Whether you are in a tenement flat or a house in Dyce, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps the weather out.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Frames and glazing around Dyce

Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic. Under the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004, shared parts of a tenement, such as the roof and outside walls, are looked after by the owners together, often through a property factor. Who owns the windows depends on the title deeds.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Dyce Academy, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

When something else is needed

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damp problems in the wall away from the window
  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
  • A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals

If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Where we work in Dyce

  • uPVC windows
  • Timber windows & doors
  • Window sills
  • Aluminium frames
  • Composite doors
  • Patio & French doors

What we are called out for in Dyce

Timber windows bring their own problems. Old mastic gets painted over and cracks under the paint, and timber moves with moisture as well as temperature.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • White mastic on grey or black frames
  • Untidy mastic left by window fitters
  • Gaps where the sill meets the wall
  • Black, perished sealant on frames

Letting a property close to Dyce station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

What your quote should include

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing

10 questions to ask before booking

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together.

The process

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. For a tenement in Dyce, work inside your flat is between us and you, while shared parts may need the factor or neighbours to agree. It helps to know which it is when you get in touch.

  1. First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
  2. All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
  4. Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
  5. The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Your questions about window mastic in Dyce

How is work on the outside of a tenement in Dyce normally arranged?

Most tenements arrange shared repairs through the owners or a property factor. The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 sets the rules for common parts if the deeds do not, and we can quote for the factor or the owners directly.

Do you cover Dyce for window mastic?

Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Dyce is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Where are you based?

We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.

What do you put in the joint?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we’re fully insured.

Will resealing my frames help with draughts?

If the draught is coming in around the frame, yes. If it’s through the window’s own seals or a hinge, that is a different fix, and we’ll say so.

What the job involves on each surface

uPVC windows

Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. We cut it out, back any deep gaps and reseal properly.

Aluminium frames

Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Do not use solvent cleaners on the joint
  • Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
  • Clear any debris from frame drain holes
  • Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows

Check the drainage slots in the frames aren’t blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.

Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. Resealing closes it.
