Window mastic for homes and businesses in Peterculter
Homes in Peterculter have every kind of window: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. We work on uPVC windows, patio & French doors and composite doors, and people most often call us about whistling draughts around closed windows and damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Peterculter depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Peterculter and across Aberdeen.

Quotes for window mastic in Peterculter
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Access and height
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If someone has resealed it before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Common problems we fix in Peterculter
On timber frames, paint and putty build up around the joint. Mastic painted over many times cracks with the paint, and timber moves with moisture as well as temperature.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Untidy mastic left by window fitters
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
Schools such as Culter School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

How the job changes by surface
Window sills
Every drop off the glass ends up on the sill, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
Composite doors
Draughts round the door leaf generally come from worn seals or adjustment, not the mastic. We seal the frame and let you know about anything else.

Is it messy?

How much does window mastic cost in Peterculter?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Will resealing my frames help with draughts?
It will if the frame joint is the problem. We find where the air is coming from before we reseal.
Can you reach windows above the ground floor?
Normally, yes. Access is planned before we start.
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A sash or casement that won’t close properly
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (that needs a new unit)
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
If you are not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Peterculter homes and the weather
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
If you live in an older home near Kelman Memorial Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Why act early in Peterculter
Working on frames from a ladder with a sealant gun isn’t easy, especially on upper floors. We cut out properly, back deep gaps and tool every joint neatly, in a sealant suited to the wall. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, 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, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Why us?
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Old sealant always removed completely

How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. Outdoor work around Peterculter depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- 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.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- Every joint is checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
