How the visit works

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Around Sauchie, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
  2. All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned and left dry.
  4. Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
  5. The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

How we handle window mastic in Sauchie

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. If you have gaps left after new windows were fitted and black, perished sealant on frames, we can help, whatever the surface.

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, so the mastic there works hard.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What we’re called out for in Sauchie

Sun, frost and rain wear sealant out. UV light hardens the outside of the bead, until it loses its stretch and starts to crack.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Hard, cracked sealant around windows
  • Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
  • Cold air getting in at the frame edge
  • Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster

Homes close to Sauchie Parish Church include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Whether VAT is included

What the job involves on each surface

Composite doors

If the door itself is draughty, the issue may be the door seals or hinges rather than the frame mastic. We will tell you if that is what we find.

Timber windows & doors

Soft or rotten wood cannot be sealed successfully. We’ll point out any rot we find, as a joiner will need to deal with it.

Frames and glazing around Sauchie

Sauchie is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.

Letting a property close to Alloa station? Then renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints. If you look after a building such as Lornshill Academy, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

How we quote for window mastic

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The type of sealant required
  • The number and length of the joints

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Helping us quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • The rough size of the job
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • If someone has resealed it before

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.

DIY versus a professional finish

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
  • Do not paint over the silicone
  • Wipe condensation off the frames
  • Keep jet washers away from the mastic

A yearly look round the frames is enough. Cracks and lifting edges are easy to spot early, and if anything looks wrong, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Water gets in quietly when mastic fails. You might not see it until plaster blows or a damp patch appears inside. Catching it early keeps the fix to a reseal.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sauchie

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
