About our window mastic in Juniper Green
Homes in Juniper Green have every kind of window: uPVC, aluminium, timber and composite, along with patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. If you have sealant in the wrong colour for the frame and cracked sealant at the sill ends, we can help, whatever the surface.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Juniper Green is planned around the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

How we quote for window mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Access and height
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number and length of the joints
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
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.

When to call us in Juniper Green
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. Sunlight dries the surface out, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
Rented homes near Wester Hailes station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
Questions to ask before booking
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How much experience the applicator has

What else we do in Juniper Green
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Juniper Green homes and the weather
Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. 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.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Repaint timber before it’s bare
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Do not aim a pressure washer at the joints
Check the drainage slots in the frames are not blocked, so water can run away instead of sitting against the joint.
Leaks generally show up in wet, windy weather, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- 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.
- A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
