Window & door mastic in Woodside, Perth and Kinross
We cover Woodside for mastic around window and door frames, sills and patio doors. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps where the sill meets the wall
- A bead that doesn’t match the frame
- Water coming in at the bottom corners of a door
When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- A sash or casement that will not close properly
- Draughts through the window seals rather than the frame
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Composite doors
- Timber windows & doors
- uPVC windows
- Aluminium frames
- Window sills
- Patio & French doors
Window mastic in Woodside, done properly
If you can feel air around a shut window, the gap is often at the frame. A new joint stops the air getting through and quietens the whistle on windy days. If the draught is through the window seals instead, we will tell you. Common call-outs are for water coming in at the bottom corners of a door and draughty joints inside around the window, on patio & French doors, aluminium frames and composite doors.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Woodside depends on the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Woodside questions
Do you cover smaller places like Woodside?
Yes. Woodside is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is window mastic in Woodside guaranteed?
All our work, in Woodside and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you seal the gap between the frame and the plaster indoors?
Yes. Outside is the weather seal; inside closes the gap to the plaster. We can do either or both.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. More than one area can be quoted together.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we are fully insured.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Common problems we fix in Woodside
Some failures date back to when the windows were fitted. Mastic laid onto dusty, damp or crumbling surfaces never bonded as it should, so it comes away long before its time.
People usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Draughts coming in around windows and doors
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Draughty joints inside around the window
- Mastic that’s falling out in pieces
Around Woodside, as everywhere, window mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Before booking anyone
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- What happens if the job turns out different
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Wash the frames with mild soapy water
- Do not paint over the silicone
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Keep timber frames painted
On timber frames, keep the paintwork in good order, since wood that gets wet swells and shrinks more. Paint up to the joint, not over the silicone.
On timber windows, water behind the joint can lead to rot. Rotten timber needs a joiner, not a sealant, so it pays to reseal before that happens.
How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a few frames, or a day or more for a whole house. For a place like Woodside, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- The old mastic is cut out and scraped back to clean surfaces.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied in a colour to suit the frame.
- We tool each bead neatly and check every joint is closed.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

What window mastic looks like in Woodside
Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional 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.
Whether the job is in Woodside itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over the top of old mastic looks like an easy fix, but new sealant can’t bond to old, crumbling mastic. It soon lifts and the leak carries on behind it. Proper resealing starts with removing the old joint. Around Woodside, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Different surfaces, different methods
uPVC windows
Plastic frames move a lot between a hot afternoon and a cold night, so the joint needs a low-modulus sealant that stays flexible. White is the usual colour, with brown, anthracite grey and black for coloured frames.
Window sills
Sills catch the water running down the glass, so the joints at each end and underneath matter. Each is cleaned out and resealed.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
