Window mastic in Tulloch: local notes
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
If you look after a building such as Bertha Park High School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
Tulloch is about 1 mile north-west of Perth, in Perth and Kinross. We carry out window mastic for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Tulloch and the surrounding area, as part of our work across Perth and Kinross. Across Perth and Kinross, we cover 107 places, and Tulloch is one of them. We also work in Dundee, around 19 miles away.
Work in PH1 works the same way as everywhere else we cover. Window mastic is available to properties on Arran Road, Crieff Road and Milton Road.

What’s near Tulloch
In Tulloch, that means homes and buildings near St John's Academy and North Inch and the streets around them. The closest station to Tulloch is Perth station, roughly 1.9 miles south-east of the centre.

How we handle window mastic in Tulloch
Frames and walls don’t move together. Heat and cold make frames grow and shrink against brick or render that hardly moves. So the sealant has to stretch and recover, which is why we use a low-modulus product. If you’re dealing with mastic that has split away from the wall and mastic that’s falling out in pieces, we can help, on patio & French doors, composite doors and aluminium frames alike.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Your questions about window mastic in Tulloch
Do you work for landlords with property near Perth station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is Tulloch in your area for window mastic?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Tulloch is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can I paint over the new sealant?
Not if it’s silicone. We choose the product with your decorating in mind, so mention it when you book.
Do you guarantee window mastic?
Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

What else we do in Tulloch
Do you need window mastic in Tulloch?
Frames are never completely still. Sun on a frame makes it expand, and it contracts again overnight, while the masonry beside it stays put. A sealant that can’t keep up eventually tears.
Look out for these signs:
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Black, perished sealant on frames
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- White mastic on grey or black frames
For landlords with property near Perth station, sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.

Why it’s worth doing now in Tulloch
The work is quick compared with the damage it prevents: it takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are. Wait for damp to appear and there may be plaster and decorating to sort out too. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Why book with us

Surface by surface
uPVC windows
We clean the frame edge carefully so the plastic is not marked, then the new bead is laid against the frame and the wall and tooled smooth.
Timber windows & doors
Timber moves with moisture as well as heat, so a flexible sealant is essential. We seal onto sound, dry paintwork or timber.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a full day, depending on how many frames there are, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Outdoor work around Tulloch 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.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep solvents and bleach off the sealant
- Clean frames with a soft cloth and soapy water
- Keep drainage slots and sill grooves clear
- Air rooms to keep condensation down around windows
Clean the frames with mild soapy water, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
Draughts get worse, not better. As old mastic keeps shrinking, the gap widens, and a cold room gets colder. A new joint closes it up.
