Windows and doors in Ingliston
The Old and New Towns of Edinburgh are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with sash windows throughout the Georgian New Town. If a home is listed or in a conservation area, it’s worth checking with the council before changing the look of windows or walls. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Schools such as Craigmount High School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Signs you need window mastic in Ingliston
Sills take more water than any other part of a window, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Rented homes near Edinburgh Gateway station change hands often, and renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.
Before you book anyone
- What guarantee comes with the work
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
When it is not the sealant
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint

Questions from Ingliston
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Edinburgh Gateway station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Ingliston in your area for window mastic?
Yes, Ingliston is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Yes. Anthracite grey, black, brown and white cover most frames, with clear as an option.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
What the job involves on each surface
Aluminium frames
Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.
Composite doors
An exposed front door gets wind-driven rain, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. Those corners get the most care.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. For a place like Ingliston, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First, we go round the frames with you and agree the list.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property
