Window & door mastic in Inverallochy, Aberdeenshire
Problem with your window and door frames in Inverallochy? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
- Black, perished sealant on frames
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and heat escapes around the frame. Resealing closes it.
About our window mastic in Inverallochy
Colour matters on a frame. We can seal in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. If you have sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame, we can put it right.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

How the job changes by surface
uPVC windows
Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so the joint needs a low-modulus sealant that stays flexible. White is the usual colour, with brown, anthracite grey and black for coloured frames.
Patio & French doors
Water at the foot of a door frame isn’t always the mastic: worn seals, blocked drainage slots or a poor threshold detail can be the cause. We check before we reseal.

Window mastic in Inverallochy: local notes
Inverallochy is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Around Inverallochy, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door, including the tidy-up. Outdoor work around Inverallochy depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

When to call us in Inverallochy
Timber windows bring their own problems. Mastic painted over many times cracks with the paint, and the wood moves with damp as well as heat.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
Homes close to Parish Church include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint
- A failed sealed unit that has misted up
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Why it’s worth doing now in Inverallochy
Draughts and leaks do not always mean new windows. Where the frames are sound, new mastic usually deals with draughts and leaks at the edges. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we will tell you. Around Inverallochy, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
Why book with us
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
