Window mastic for homes and businesses in Port na Craig
From a single sill to a whole house of windows, the work is priced before anything is done. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us how many frames there are and how they’re reached. Typical jobs include cracked internal joints between frame and plaster and draughts coming in around windows and doors, across timber windows & doors, composite doors and patio & French doors.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Port na Craig depends on the weather. 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.

Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What affects the quote in Port na Craig
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Access and height
- The number and length of the joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Where the property is
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The rough size of the job
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job.

Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we’re ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Windows and doors in Port na Craig
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.
Letting a property close to Pitlochry station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Croftinloan School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

What the job involves on each surface
uPVC windows
uPVC expands and contracts noticeably with temperature, so we use a flexible, low-modulus sealant. We match white, brown, anthracite grey and black frames.
Patio & French doors
Heavy door frames can move more than windows. The sealant must cope with it, where a rigid one would crack.
Why deal with it now?
Resealing frames is a short job: it takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Tidy, careful work
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

What we are called out for in Port na Craig
A lot of older mastic was never designed to stay flexible. Once it has hardened, the frame’s movement tears it from the wall, and a gap opens along one edge.
The most common problems we see are:
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Cracked or shrunken mastic around the frame
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
In the older streets around Baptist Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
What your quote should include
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
