Mossblown questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Prestwick Town station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is Mossblown within the area you cover?
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.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Not if it’s silicone. Tell us your decorating plans and we’ll pick a sealant to suit.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.
How much does window mastic cost in Mossblown?
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 OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Don’t use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Don’t aim a pressure washer at the joints
- Keep timber frames painted
A yearly look round the frames is enough. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.
Do you need window mastic in Mossblown?
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. When that sealant fails, water gets into the wall or under the frame.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Old mastic that has gone black or come away
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
Managing a site like Drumley House School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- The length of the guarantee
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether VAT is included
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
How the job changes by surface
Composite doors
Composite doors are normally hung in an uPVC-type frame, so its perimeter joint is sealed much like a window. The bead is colour-matched to the frame.
Patio & French doors
Heavy door frames can move more than windows. A flexible sealant copes with that.
What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Outdoor work around Mossblown depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We start by checking each window and door with you.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Every joint is checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about any water getting in

Leave it or put it right?
If you are painting or rendering, reseal at the same time. Fresh joints finish the job neatly, and it’s easier while the walls are being worked on anyway. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
