How we handle window mastic in Newton
Over two decades of sealing frames has taught us which products suit which walls. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and we give a 12-month guarantee on the work. We’re often asked to deal with cracked internal joints between frame and plaster and cold air getting in at the frame edge, across uPVC windows, timber windows & doors and aluminium frames.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Why act early in Newton
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: it takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Leave it until water is coming in and you may need plastering and decorating as well. In an older home around Newton, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Why us?
- We never seal over old sealant
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Over 20 years’ experience

How the job changes by surface
Aluminium frames
Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the bottom joint sees the most water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.
Window sills
Sills catch the water running down the glass, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
Window mastic in Newton: local notes
Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, 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 sound outside sealant is part of that.
If you live in an older home near Spynie Parish Church and Enclosing Walls, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Rented homes near Elgin station change hands often, and cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
