Frames and glazing around Greenfoot
Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. 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.
If you let a flat or house near Gartcosh station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first. Schools such as Buchanan High School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you live in an older home near Church Of Scotland, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

How we handle window mastic in Greenfoot
Some gaps around frames are far deeper than they look. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that can’t flex, so we fit backing rod to set the right depth. That way the new bead bonds to the frame and the wall only. If you have cracked internal joints between frame and plaster and gaps left after new windows were fitted, we can help, whatever the surface.
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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Around Greenfoot, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Questions from Greenfoot
Is Greenfoot in your area for window mastic?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Greenfoot is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Gartcosh station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
What does window mastic cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
Yes, if the air is getting in around the frame. If it’s through the window’s own seals or a hinge, that’s a different fix, and we will say so.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Do you seal inside as well as outside?
Yes. Draughts often come through the inside gap too, so sealing both is often worthwhile.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.

Why deal with it now?
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: it takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. 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.

Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
Masonry sills can have joints where water gets in, including the one between the sill and the frame above. We seal those with a sealant suited to masonry.
Patio & French doors
Patio and French doors have the longest joints on most houses. Most leaks start at the bottom corners, so they get particular care.
