Window mastic in Morebattle, done properly
Frames and walls do not move together. Plastic and aluminium frames move with the temperature, while masonry stays fairly still. That’s why the joint needs a flexible, low-modulus sealant rather than something rigid. We work on aluminium frames, window sills and uPVC windows, and the jobs we see most are cracked sealant at the sill ends and cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame.
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.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

FAQs for Morebattle
Do you cover Morebattle for window mastic?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Morebattle is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is window mastic in Morebattle guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
In many cases. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and resealing inside and out closes it.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you get sealant to suit coloured frames?
Yes. Anthracite grey, black, brown and white cover most frames, with clear as an option.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Morebattle and the rest of the Scottish Borders, along with the rest of our area.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Frames and glazing around Morebattle
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
In and around Morebattle, as anywhere, good window mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Homes close to Parish Church of St Lawrence include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What affects the quote in Morebattle
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether the work is at height
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The size of the job
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Roughly how big the job is
- Where the property is
To get a quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the location and a short description of the problem. We will send you a clear quote before any work starts.
How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Around Morebattle, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
- Condensation trapped between the panes
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

Other services in Morebattle
Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
Masonry sills can have joints where water gets in, including the one between the sill and the frame above. We seal those with a sealant suited to masonry.
Composite doors
Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, so its perimeter joint is sealed much like a window. We match the colour to the frame.
Why act early in Morebattle
If you’re painting or rendering, reseal at the same time. A clean new bead makes new paint or render look finished. In a place like Morebattle, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
