Window mastic in Logie, done properly
Around Logie we seal all kinds of frames: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, along with patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. Typical jobs include whistling draughts around closed windows and cracked sealant at the sill ends, on window sills, patio & French doors and aluminium frames.
Scotland’s cities are full of stone-built tenements and terraces, in sandstone or granite. Natural stone around older windows needs a sealant that won’t mark or attack it, so acetoxy silicones, which can attack some stone, are best avoided.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first

Joints and surfaces we work on
- Timber windows & doors
- Composite doors
- Window sills
- Patio & French doors
- Aluminium frames
- uPVC windows
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Do not aim a pressure washer at the joints
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Keep timber frames painted
Keep sill grooves and drainage slots clear, so rain drains out rather than building up at the sealant.
Water trapped behind a failed joint can start rot in timber frames and sills. Once wood has rotted, it needs repair before it can be sealed, so it pays to reseal before that happens.

Questions from Logie
How do repairs to the shared parts of a tenement in Logie get organised?
Shared parts of a tenement, such as the roof and outside walls, are generally repaired with the agreement of the owners, often through a property factor. Where the title deeds are silent, the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 fills the gaps. Windows often belong to the individual flat, but it’s worth checking your deeds.
I let a flat near Dundee station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
In many cases. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and sealing the inside and outside joints closes that path.
How do I get a quote for window mastic in Logie?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you.
Can you match the sealant to my frames?
Yes. Anthracite grey, black, brown and white cover most frames, with clear as an option.
Do you come to Logie?
Yes. We’re based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Different surfaces, different methods
Aluminium frames
Large aluminium doors have long joints down each side and across the head, and the threshold joint takes a lot of water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
Window sills
Stone and concrete sills have their own joints, including the one between the sill and the frame above. Those are sealed with a product suited to stone or concrete.
What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door and we leave things clean and tidy. Inside a flat in Logie, the job is planned with you; outside, shared parts may need the factor or other owners involved. Tell us which applies when you book.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
- Backing rod fills deep voids and the sealant goes in on top.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in

How we quote for window mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Access and height
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How many areas need sealing
- The size of the job
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Where the property is
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
For window mastic in Logie, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
Why deal with it now?
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: it takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. For landlords in Logie, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so it’s worth fixing failed sealant before a tenant reports it.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What window mastic looks like in Logie
Logie is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. Under the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004, shared parts of a tenement, such as the roof and outside walls, are looked after by the owners together, and many buildings use a factor to arrange it. Who owns the windows depends on the title deeds.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Harris Academy, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Historic houses such as Camperdown House, about 2.2 miles north-west, show how far back building around Logie goes, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.

Signs you need window mastic in Logie
Sills take more water than any other part of a window, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. Failed sealant there lets rain into the wall or behind the frame.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
If you let a flat or house near Dundee station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
