Window mastic near Lesmahagow

When to call us in Lesmahagow

Timber windows bring their own problems. Old mastic gets painted over and cracks under the paint, and timber moves with moisture as well as temperature.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
  • Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
  • Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
  • Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain

Homes close to Lesmahagow Old 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.

Before booking anyone

  • Whether VAT is included
  • What insurance they hold
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • When the joint can take water or movement

Lesmahagow homes and the weather

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

If you look after a building such as Lesmahagow High School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Common questions in Lesmahagow

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.

A few frames take a few hours, while a whole house takes longer. We confirm the timing with your quote.

Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

What we do, step by step

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. For a place like Lesmahagow, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We check how each frame can be reached safely.
  2. All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
  3. Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
  4. Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
  5. We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Why deal with it now?

Redecorating is a good moment to renew the mastic. Fresh joints finish the job neatly. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Why choose Mr Mastic in Lesmahagow

  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
  • We are fully insured
  • 20+ years of sealant experience

Honest limits

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • A sash or casement that will not close properly
  • Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
  • Soft or decayed wood in the frame

If you are not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • uPVC windows
  • Aluminium frames
  • Composite doors
  • Patio & French doors
  • Window sills
  • Timber windows & doors

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

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 fails, we can still redo it.

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.
