Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
Where a sill meets brick or render, the ends often crack first. A tight seal at each end keeps rain out of the wall.
Timber windows & doors
Timber moves with moisture as well as heat, so a flexible sealant is essential. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.
Window mastic in High Banton
A window frame and the wall around it expand and shrink at different rates. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. That is why the joint needs a flexible, low-modulus sealant rather than something rigid. If you are dealing with mastic that has split away from the wall and white mastic on grey or black frames, we can put it right.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
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.

What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house for a typical job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Every joint is checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

When to call us in High Banton
On timber frames, paint and putty build up around the joint. Mastic painted over many times cracks with the paint, and the wood moves with damp as well as heat.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Rushed sealant from a window installation
- A bead that does not match the frame
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
If you let a flat or house near Croy station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.

Window mastic in High Banton: local notes
Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. High Banton is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for the mastic around window and door frames to keep out.
For an older house near a landmark such as Banton Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Make sure the drainage slots are not blocked
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
- Keep paint off silicone joints
Keep sill grooves and drainage slots clear, so rain drains out rather than building up at the sealant.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
High Banton: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like High Banton?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover High Banton for window mastic?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and High Banton is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
In many cases. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and sealing the inside and outside joints closes that path.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
Not if it’s silicone. We choose the product with your decorating in mind, so mention it when you book.
What affects the quote in High Banton
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether the work is at height
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
We don’t publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
