What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Outdoor work around Stor depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We check how each frame can be reached safely.
- Old, cracked mastic is removed completely.
- The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any tricky access
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.

Window mastic in Stor
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 for window mastic in Stor. Common call-outs are for draughty joints inside around the window and sealant in the wrong colour for the frame, on uPVC windows, composite doors and aluminium frames.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Stor depends on the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Frames and glazing around Stor
Stor is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on the mastic around window and door frames, especially on the side facing the sea. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Around Stor, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Stor (Gaelic: Stoer) is in Highland. We provide window mastic to homes and businesses in Stor, as part of our work across Highland. Stor is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland we cover.
Jobs for window mastic in IV27 works the same way as everywhere else we cover. If you’re just outside Stor, we cover Stoer (1 mile south-west), Lochinver (5 miles south-east), An Druim Beag (5 miles north-east), Scourie More (11 miles north-east) and Scourie (12 miles north-east). For island and remote addresses, the job takes a little more planning, so mention it when you ask for a quote.

When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A frame that has rotted at the joint
- A door that needs adjusting, rehanging or new seals
- A sash or casement that will not close properly
If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Aluminium frames
- Window sills
- Patio & French doors
- Composite doors
- uPVC windows
- Timber windows & doors
Landlord and commercial work in Stor
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Do you need window mastic in Stor?
Frames are never completely still. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the brick or render around it hardly moves. A sealant that cannot keep up eventually tears.
People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
- White mastic on grey or black frames
- Cold air getting in at the frame edge
- Leaking joints at the ends of sills
For jobs in and around Stor, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
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.
What affects the cost of window mastic
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any mould that needs treating
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The type of sealant required
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 we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the property is
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details and send pictures if you have them.

What the job involves on each surface
uPVC windows
Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. It comes out, deep gaps get backing rod and the joint is resealed.
Patio & French doors
Door frames take knocks and movement every time the doors are used. The sealant must cope with it.
