What window mastic looks like in Oakbank
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Perth High School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep jet washers away from the mastic
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Keep timber frames painted
Have a look at the joints once a year, ideally after winter. Small splits are simple to catch before they leak.
Signs to watch for: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. Any of these is worth a call.
Why act early in Oakbank
Running fresh sealant over the old joint is tempting, but it will not grip old, dirty sealant. It soon lifts and the leak carries on behind it. The old mastic has to come out. In an older home around Oakbank, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What you get with us
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

How the job changes by surface
Patio & French doors
Heavy door frames can move more than windows. The sealant must cope with it.
uPVC windows
Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so we use a flexible, low-modulus sealant. White is the usual colour, with brown, anthracite grey and black for coloured frames.
Landlord and commercial work in Oakbank
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
What else we do in Oakbank
When to call us in Oakbank
Joints that are too thin or too deep fail early. A thin smear across a wide gap has nothing to it, while a joint packed solid cannot stretch. That is what backing rod is for.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
If you let a flat or house near Perth station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether you can choose the colour

The process
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. Outdoor work around Oakbank depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- First we look at every frame and agree the list.
- Next the failed sealant is cut away and the joint cleaned.
- 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.
- Every joint is checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
