Window mastic in West Tofts

Some gaps around frames are far deeper than they look. Packing it solid with sealant gives a joint that cannot flex, so deep gaps get backing rod first. The sealant then grips the two sides it should. If you have old mastic that has gone black or come away and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door, we can help.

Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in West Tofts depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Leave it or put it right?

If you are painting or rendering, reseal at the same time. Fresh joints finish the job neatly. 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.

Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Window mastic in West Tofts: local notes

Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.

Around West Tofts, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

When to call us in West Tofts

Every frame moves through the day. A plastic or aluminium frame lengthens in sunshine and shortens as it cools, while the masonry beside it stays put. A sealant that cannot keep up eventually tears.

What we do, step by step

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. The job generally takes a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere like West Tofts may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We check how each frame can be reached safely.
  2. Old, cracked mastic is removed completely, along with any loose debris.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned and left dry, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
  4. Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
  5. The joint is shaped to shed water and the area tidied.

Preparing for the visit

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Honest limits

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
  • Broken hinges, locks or handles
  • Damp coming through the wall itself rather than the frame joint

If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

  • Aluminium frames
  • Composite doors
  • Window sills
  • uPVC windows
  • Patio & French doors
  • Timber windows & doors

Different surfaces, different methods

Aluminium frames

Bi-fold and sliding aluminium doors have long frame joints, and the bottom joint sees the most water. We prepare and reseal every joint, backing the deep ones.

uPVC windows

Fitters’ mastic on plastic frames is sometimes thin and rushed. We cut it out, back any deep gaps and reseal properly.
