About our window mastic in Fettercairn
Around Fettercairn we seal all kinds of frames: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. If you have white mastic on grey or black frames and old mastic that has gone black or come away, we can put it right.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Windows and doors in Fettercairn
Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
In the older streets around Fettercairn Parish Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What else we do in Fettercairn
What we are called out for in Fettercairn
Plenty of failed mastic was poorly applied in the first place. Mastic laid onto dusty, damp or crumbling surfaces never bonded as it should, so it comes away long before its time.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Whistling draughts around closed windows
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
Letting a property close to Laurencekirk station? Then sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the job turns out different
- What product goes in the joint
How it works
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Somewhere like Fettercairn may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Why act early in Fettercairn
Draughts and leaks do not always mean new windows. If the frames and glass are in good order, resealing the joints is often all that’s needed. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we’ll tell you. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
Why us?
- Tidy, careful work
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Colour agreed with you before we start
What affects the quote in Fettercairn
We don’t publish a price list. What we look at:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The product the joint needs
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How we’d reach the joints
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
