About our window mastic in Lanark

The new joint doesn’t have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. If you have rushed sealant from a window installation and draughty joints inside around the window, we can put it right.

Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Lanark is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

What we do, step by step

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. For a place like Lanark, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
  2. Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
  3. We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
  4. A flexible, weatherproof sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
  5. Every joint is 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
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

What we’re called out for in Lanark

Water runs down the glass onto the sill, so the sill ends and the joint below the frame are common leak points. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
  • White mastic on grey or black frames
  • Black, perished sealant on frames
  • Gaps left after new windows were fitted

Schools such as Lanark Grammar School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

10 questions to ask before booking

What window mastic looks like in Lanark

Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.

Your questions about window mastic in Lanark

Is Lanark in your area for window mastic?

Yes, Lanark is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Lanark?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What sealant do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.

Will resealing my frames help with draughts?

It will if the frame joint is the problem. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.

Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?

Yes. The outside joint keeps the weather out, and the inside joint stops draughts and finishes the reveal. We do one or both.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

What the job involves on each surface

uPVC windows

The frame is cleaned with a product that won’t harm the plastic, then the new bead is laid against the frame and the wall and tooled smooth.

Aluminium frames

Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the bottom joint sees the most water. Each is cleaned, backed where deep and resealed.
