Windows and doors in Eastfield
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. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, which means the mastic around window and door frames has to cope with a lot of rain.
Rented homes near Burnside station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets. Managing a site like Stonelaw High School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Window mastic in Eastfield
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. A new joint stops the air getting through and quietens the whistle on windy days. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with gaps left after new windows were fitted and cold air getting in at the frame edge, we can help, on uPVC windows, composite doors and patio & French doors alike.
Scotland’s cities are full of stone-built tenements and terraces, in sandstone or granite. Natural stone around older windows needs a sealant that won’t mark or attack it, which usually means a neutral-cure product or a traditional sand mastic rather than an acetoxy silicone.

What affects the cost of window mastic
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The type of sealant required
- The number of rooms or windows
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The address or postcode of the job
- The rough size of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before

Eastfield: your questions answered
Can you do window mastic in Eastfield?
Yes, Eastfield is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
I let a flat near Burnside station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
Do you guarantee window mastic?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, inside or out.
Can you match the sealant to my frames?
Yes, we choose a colour to suit the frame. Anthracite grey, black, brown and white cover most frames, with clear as an option.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, if safe access is possible. For high or awkward windows, we’ll tell you what access is needed.
How much does window mastic cost in Eastfield?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Wipe condensation off the frames
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Don’t use solvent cleaners on the joint
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Draughts get worse, not better. As the old mastic shrinks further, more air gets through, and a cold room gets colder. Resealing closes it.
When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Where we work in Eastfield
- Timber windows & doors
- Patio & French doors
- Composite doors
- Window sills
- Aluminium frames
- uPVC windows
Do you need window mastic in Eastfield?
Sills take more water than any other part of a window, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. When that sealant fails, water gets into the wall or under the frame.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Homes close to Wardlawhill Church include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What happens if the job turns out different

What we do, step by step
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. For a job in Eastfield, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
Ask for a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
Related advice
What the job involves on each surface
Aluminium frames
Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the bottom joint sees the most water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.
Composite doors
Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, and the joint around it is sealed like a window. We match the colour to the frame.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
