About our window mastic in Wellhouse
Colour matters on a frame. We can seal in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear, so the bead blends with the window rather than framing it. We’re often asked to deal with a bead that doesn’t match the frame and leaking joints at the ends of sills, across window sills, composite doors and uPVC windows.
In and around a place like Wellhouse, homes range from older stone-built cottages to newer houses. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill, so the mastic there works hard.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Window mastic in Wellhouse: local notes
The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for the mastic around window and door frames to keep out. With historic houses such as Provand's Lordship (about 4 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Wellhouse as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Schools such as Bannerman High School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. In the older streets around Saint Benedict's Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Clear any debris from frame drain holes
- Walk round the house once a year and look at the joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
Wipe the frames with soapy water when you clean the windows, and avoid solvent cleaners on the sealant.
On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so early resealing is worth it.

Is Wellhouse within the area you cover?

Can new window sealant be painted?
Not usually, if it’s silicone. Tell us your decorating plans and we will pick a sealant to suit.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
How long before the joint can be used?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. We can talk about working times when we quote.
What affects the quote in Wellhouse
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The size of the job
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
Every job is quoted individually. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details and send photos if you have them.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
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, then guaranteed for a year.
Signs you need window mastic in Wellhouse
Water runs down the glass onto the sill, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. When that sealant fails, water gets into the wall or under the frame.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Damp patches on the reveal after heavy rain
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- Mastic that is falling out in pieces
- Cracked internal joints between frame and plaster
For landlords with property near Garrowhill station, renewing tired window mastic between tenants heads off draught and damp complaints.
Before booking anyone
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How much experience the applicator has
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
What the job involves on each surface
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so we pay close attention there.
Composite doors
Draughts round the door leaf generally come from worn seals or adjustment, not the mastic. We seal the frame and let you know about anything else.
How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. Somewhere like Wellhouse may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We check each frame and agree which ones need doing.
- The old mastic is cut out and the surfaces cleaned back.
- Where gaps are deep, backing rod goes in first.
- New exterior sealant goes on in a matching colour and is tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and check each joint.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
