Window mastic in Murthly
The new joint does not have to be white. White, brown, anthracite grey, black and clear sealants are all available, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. Typical jobs include leaking joints at the ends of sills and old mastic that has gone black or come away, across window sills, composite doors and timber windows & doors.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Murthly is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What else we do in Murthly
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame and the wall.
- We fit backing rod in deep gaps so the sealant is the right depth.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Before we arrive
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Why act early in Murthly
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially upstairs. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, using a product chosen for the frame and wall. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Why book with us
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings

How the job changes by surface
Composite doors
Front doors take the weather head on, and the top and bottom corners tend to fail first. Those corners get the most care.
uPVC windows
Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. We cut it out, back any deep gaps and reseal properly.
Your questions about window mastic in Murthly
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Dunkeld & Birnam station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is Murthly within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

When to call us in Murthly
Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, and over the years it loses its give, cracks and comes away.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
- Sealant in the wrong colour for the frame
For an older house near a landmark such as United Presbyterian Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
Before booking anyone
- What insurance they hold
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How long the guarantee is
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Keep timber frames painted
- Ventilate rooms so frames don’t stay wet inside
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
Leaks usually show up in wet, windy weather, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Dealing with it when you first notice a crack avoids chasing leaks through the wet months.
Murthly homes and the weather
Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Letting a property close to Dunkeld & Birnam station? Then cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
