About our window mastic in Fearn
There are two joints on most windows. The external joint is the weather seal; the internal joint closes the gap to the plaster and stops draughts. We seal one or both, depending on what’s needed. Typical jobs include a bead that doesn’t match the frame and rain getting in at the frame or under the sill, across patio & French doors, composite doors and timber windows & doors.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Fearn is planned around the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Common questions in Fearn
Is window mastic in a coastal place like Fearn any different?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Will you come out to Fearn?
Yes, Fearn is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Fearn.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
How much does window mastic cost in Fearn?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing and where.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Yes, we choose a colour to suit the frame. Anthracite grey, black, brown and white cover most frames, with clear as an option.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Windows and doors in Fearn
Fearn is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on the mastic around window and door frames, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Around Fearn, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you let a flat or house near Fearn station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Faulty window hardware
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of old mastic looks like an easy fix, but it will not grip old, dirty sealant. It soon lifts and the leak carries on behind it. The old mastic has to come out. In an older home around Fearn, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

What else we do in Fearn
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside
Silicone can’t usually be painted, so mention any painting plans before work begins. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.
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.
How the visit works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Around Fearn, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- 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
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Access and height

- Any previous sealing or DIY work

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
