Window mastic for homes and businesses in Ibrox
A cold draught around a closed window often comes from the frame edge. A new joint stops the air getting through. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we’ll tell you. We work on timber windows & doors, aluminium frames and uPVC windows, and common reasons people get in touch are mastic that’s falling out in pieces and gaps where the sill meets the wall.
Sash and case windows are a feature of older tenements in all four Scottish cities, though many have since been replaced. Whether you are in a tenement flat or a house in Ibrox, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps the weather out.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Glasgow.

What window mastic looks like in Ibrox
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
If you let a flat or house near Dumbreck station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets. Managing a site like Bellahouston Academy? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you live in an older home near Ibrox Parish Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Ibrox is about 1 mile west of Glasgow, in Glasgow. Whether you’re in the middle of Ibrox or further out, we cover window mastic for every kind of property. Ibrox is one of 183 places in Glasgow we cover.
Postcode districts we cover here for window mastic: G51, G41 and G52. Whether your property is on Farm Road, Rowan Road and Skene Road or a nearby road, our applicators can take on the job.

What’s near Ibrox
Typical jobs here are in homes near Craigholme School, Glasgow University Library and Craigton Primary School.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Wipe condensation off the frames
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Early resealing stops it reaching that point.
What the job involves on each surface
Aluminium frames
Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the bottom joint sees the most water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
Window sills
Every drop off the glass ends up on the sill, so the sill ends and the joint under the frame are vital. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
Why act early in Ibrox
Choosing the product is half the job. Interior caulk and bathroom silicone are not made for exterior frame joints. A low-modulus exterior sealant keeps its stretch through hot and cold weather. Private landlords in Ibrox must meet the Repairing Standard, and damp or leaks can fall short of it, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.

How we quote for window mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The type of sealant required
- The number and length of the joints
- Access and height
- Any mould that needs treating
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The type of property
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are for a typical job. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. In Ibrox, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any tricky access

Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Can you do the inside joint as well?
Yes. Plenty of draughts come through the inside joint as well as the outside, so it can be worth sealing both.

Yes, in most cases. Mention the frame colour when you ask for a quote and we’ll match it as closely as we can.
