How we handle window mastic in Kirkton of Skene
Homes in Kirkton of Skene have every kind of window: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, along with patio doors, French doors and sills. Each gets a sealant chosen for the frame and the wall it meets. We work on timber windows & doors, uPVC windows and patio & French doors, and common reasons people get in touch are mastic that’s falling out in pieces and white mastic on grey or black frames.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Aberdeenshire.

Signs you need window mastic in Kirkton of Skene
Plenty of failed mastic was poorly applied in the first place. Sealant run over dust, wet brick or loose mortar didn’t grip properly, so it comes away long before its time.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
Schools such as Westhill Academy are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What the cure time is
- How much experience the applicator has

Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?
Yes, we choose a colour to suit the frame. Anthracite grey, black, brown and white cover most frames, with clear as an option.
How do I get a quote for window mastic in Kirkton of Skene?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do you seal inside as well as outside?
Yes. Plenty of draughts come through the inside joint as well as the outside, so it can be worth sealing both.
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Kirkton of Skene, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Keep paint off silicone joints
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
A failed joint lets water into the wall a little at a time. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.
What happens if it’s left?
Getting a straight, even bead on an outside frame takes practice, especially on upper floors. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. Around Kirkton of Skene, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
