Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t paint over the silicone
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
- Avoid blasting the frames with a pressure washer
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early.
Leaks usually show up in wet, windy weather, but sealant goes on best when frames and walls are dry. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.
Window mastic in Noranside
From a single sill to a whole house of windows, you will get a clear quote before work begins. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us how many frames there are and how they’re reached. We work on timber windows & doors, window sills and uPVC windows, and common reasons people get in touch are mastic that’s falling out in pieces and cracked internal joints between frame and plaster.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Timber windows & doors
On period timber windows, traditional sand mastic is sometimes the better choice. We can talk through the options.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Soft or decayed wood in the frame
- Worn gaskets, brush seals or a door that has dropped
- Broken hinges, locks or handles
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Noranside
Is window mastic in Noranside guaranteed?
All our work, in Noranside and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover smaller places like Noranside?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Can new window sealant be painted?
Most silicone can’t be painted. If you plan to paint, tell us first and we can use a paintable sealant where it suits the joint.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we’re fully insured.
Will new mastic stop draughts?
Often, yes. Air often gets in between the frame and the wall, and sealing the inside and outside joints closes that path.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Why deal with it now?
Running fresh sealant over the old joint is tempting, but it will not grip old, dirty sealant. It peels before long, and water still gets in behind. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. 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.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

When to call us in Noranside
Every frame moves through the day. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. A sealant that cannot keep up eventually tears.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
In and around Noranside, as anywhere, good window mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door, depending on how much there is to do. Around Noranside, 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.
- 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, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Noranside homes and the weather
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, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
In the older streets around Old Parish Church And Churchyard, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
