What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a morning for a couple of windows and a door in most cases. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. In Stobhill, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Where the gap is deep, backing rod goes in first.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.

FAQs for Stobhill
I let a flat near Bishopbriggs station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover Stobhill for window mastic?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Stobhill is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
Can you do the inside joint as well?
Yes. Plenty of draughts come through the inside joint as well as the outside, so sealing both is often worthwhile.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
That depends on the product. Some hybrid sealants can be painted; silicone can’t. Tell us if you are decorating and we’ll choose accordingly.
How many windows can you do in a day?
The work takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Access and how stubborn the old mastic is affect the time most.
Different surfaces, different methods
uPVC windows
We clean the frame edge carefully so the plastic isn’t marked, then the new bead is laid against the frame and the wall and tooled smooth.
Timber windows & doors
On period timber windows, traditional sand mastic is sometimes the better choice. We will tell you which suits your home.

Other services in Stobhill
Do you need window mastic in Stobhill?
Every frame moves through the day. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. If the sealant can’t stretch, it splits.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Rain getting in at the frame or under the sill
- Hard, cracked sealant around windows
- Mastic that is falling out in pieces
- Gaps left after new windows were fitted
For landlords with property near Bishopbriggs station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether VAT is included
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep timber frames painted
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Do not aim a pressure washer at the joints
- Check the mastic once a year
Try not to touch the new joint while it cures, following the cure time we give you. Keep jet washers away from the frames.
Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. Resealing closes it.
Stobhill homes and the weather
Much of Glasgow is built from red and blond sandstone, and porous sandstone needs a sealant that will not mark it. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
If you live in an older home near Colston Wellpark Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
