- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
Window mastic for homes and businesses in Huntingtower
The mastic around a window or door seals the gap between the frame and the wall. Once that seal fails, wind and rain find the gap. Our applicators cut it out and replace it with a flexible, weatherproof sealant. We work on aluminium frames, composite doors and uPVC windows, and the jobs we see most are gaps between the frame and the inside reveal and cracked sealant at the sill ends.
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.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

What the job involves on each surface
uPVC windows
Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. We cut it out, back any deep gaps and reseal properly.
Aluminium frames
Metal frames expand in the sun and are often slim, with little room for error. A neat, narrow bead in a colour to match suits the frame.
Frames and glazing around Huntingtower
Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Perth High School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Letting a property close to Perth station? Then sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Leave it or put it right?
If you’re painting or rendering, reseal at the same time. Fresh joints finish the job neatly, and it’s easier while the walls are being worked on anyway. In a place like Huntingtower, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- 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.

What affects the quote in Huntingtower
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- Any mould that needs treating
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the job is, and your postcode
There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Damp problems in the wall away from the window
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Landlord and commercial work in Huntingtower
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
