How we quote for window mastic
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the joints are to reach

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Roughly how big the job is
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
About our window mastic in Turfhill
From a single sill to a whole house of windows, you will get a clear quote before work begins. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us how many frames there are and how they’re reached. We work on composite doors, aluminium frames and patio & French doors, and people most often call us about leaking joints at the ends of sills and cracked internal joints between frame and plaster.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain, so the mastic there works hard.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

What window mastic looks like in Turfhill
Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as New Deer Parish Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Around Turfhill, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Paint up to the joint, not over it
- Ventilate rooms so frames do not stay wet inside
- Don’t use solvent cleaners on the joint
- Check the mastic once a year
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and keep solvents and harsh chemicals off the joint.
Look out for the warning signs: split or missing mastic, gaps, damp patches inside or black mould on the reveal. If you notice one, it’s time to get the joint looked at.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Turfhill
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

How it works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames in most cases. Around Turfhill, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- Deep gaps are filled with backing rod to set the depth.
- We apply a weatherproof sealant to match the frame and tool it neatly.
- We clear up and check every joint is fully closed.

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Aluminium frames
Aluminium needs a sealant that bonds to coated metal and we avoid acetoxy silicones, which can react with some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.
Composite doors
A composite door normally sits in a plastic outer frame, and the joint around it is sealed like a window. The bead is colour-matched to the frame.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
