Landlord and commercial work in Kingennie
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
How we handle window mastic in Kingennie
Some gaps around frames are far deeper than they look. Filling it with sealant alone leaves a joint that cannot move properly, so deep gaps get backing rod first. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. Common call-outs are for whistling draughts around closed windows and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door, across patio & French doors, timber windows & doors and window sills.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Kingennie and across Dundee.

Quotes for window mastic in Kingennie
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The type of sealant required
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Access and height
- When we can work, for business premises
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

Your questions about window mastic in Kingennie
Is Kingennie in your area for window mastic?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Kingennie is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Kingennie?
Yes. Kingennie is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels.
Do you seal inside as well as outside?
Yes, we do both. Indoors, we seal between the frame and the plaster or reveal, using a paintable sealant if you want to decorate.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Surface by surface
Composite doors
A composite door generally sits in a plastic outer frame, so its perimeter joint is sealed much like a window. The bead is colour-matched to the frame.
Aluminium frames
Aluminium needs a sealant that bonds to coated metal and we avoid acetoxy silicones, which can react with some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.
Can I do it myself?
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

Leave it or put it right?
Redecorating is a good moment to renew the mastic. Fresh joints finish the job neatly. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

What we are called out for in Kingennie
Older frames were often sealed with products that set hard. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, and a gap opens along one edge.
Look out for any of the following:
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
For landlords with property near Monifieth station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- What preparation is included
Window mastic in Kingennie: local notes
Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. Dundee sits on the north bank of the Tay, and much of its older housing is sandstone tenements, so the mastic around window and door frames on walls facing the water can take plenty of weather.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Monifieth High School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
