How the visit works
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. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Window mastic in Greengairs: local notes
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Around Greengairs, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Greengairs is about 3 miles south-east of Cumbernauld, in North Lanarkshire. Greengairs gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. Our North Lanarkshire coverage runs to 89 places, Greengairs among them. There’s also a page for Glasgow, about 14 miles away.

Local landmarks in Greengairs

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: 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 the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Do not paint over the silicone
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
Silicone cannot normally be painted, so mention any painting plans before work begins. There are paintable sealants for joints that need it.
Signs to watch for: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. Any of these is worth a call.

Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.

Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, in most cases. Access is planned before any work starts, so mention the height and anything in the way.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Generally, yes. Tell us the frame colour when you get in touch and we’ll use the nearest match.
What affects the cost of window mastic
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- The size of the job
- How easy the joints are to reach
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The type of property
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How we’d reach the joints
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

When to call us in Greengairs
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, and a gap opens along one edge.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- Mastic that is falling out in pieces
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- A bead that does not match the frame
If you let a flat or house near Cumbernauld station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.
