How it works

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. For a place like Edzell Woods, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
  2. The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
  3. Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
  4. The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
  5. Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Advice

How we handle window mastic in Edzell Woods

Behind a thin line of old mastic there’s sometimes a deep void. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that can’t flex, so we fit backing rod to set the right depth. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. If you are dealing with rushed sealant from a window installation and rain getting in at the frame or under the sill, we can help.

Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Edzell Woods is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Edzell Woods: your questions answered

Will you come out to Edzell Woods?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Is there a guarantee on window mastic in Edzell Woods?

All our work, in Edzell Woods and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Edzell Woods, along with the rest of our area.

Do you seal inside as well as outside?

Yes. Draughts often come through the inside gap too, so sealing both is often worthwhile.

How much does window mastic cost in Edzell Woods?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Will new mastic stop draughts?

Yes, where the draught is at the frame edge. We check where the draught is before work begins.

Is the new sealant paintable?

Not if it’s silicone. Tell us your decorating plans and we’ll pick a sealant to suit.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Do you need window mastic in Edzell Woods?

Plenty of failed mastic was poorly applied in the first place. Mastic laid onto dusty, damp or crumbling surfaces never bonded as it should, and it lets go sooner than it should.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
  • Old mastic that has gone black or come away
  • White mastic on grey or black frames
  • Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain

For jobs in and around Edzell Woods, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

How to choose a mastic man

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

For anyone letting property in or around Edzell Woods, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

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, then guaranteed for a year.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check the mastic once a year
  • Clear any debris from frame drain holes
  • Don’t paint over the silicone
  • Keep jet washers away from the mastic

A yearly look round the frames is enough. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak.

A failed joint lets water into the wall a little at a time. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.

Why deal with it now?

Choosing the product is half the job. Decorators’ caulk and bathroom silicone are not designed for outside joints that move. An exterior, low-modulus sealant stays flexible in sun and frost. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Why Edzell Woods customers choose us

  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • Tidy, careful work
  • You choose the colour before work begins
