Questions from Alness
Do you cover smaller places like Alness?
Yes, Alness is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Alness station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
What guarantee do I get?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
It depends on the cause. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
How we handle glazing silicone in Alness
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks usually come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you have rooflight joints letting water in and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, we can help, whatever the surface.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Access and height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number and length of the joints
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it’s a home or a business
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that is easy.
Do you need glazing silicone in Alness?
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould gets into it and the joint starts to lift.
People normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
Homes close to Rosskeen Parish Church include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
What your quote should include
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the colour is chosen
- How hidden problems are handled
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Glass that needs replacing
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Glass balustrade bases
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass-to-frame joints
Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
Rooflights
Rooflights get the full force of the weather. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.

Alness homes and the weather
Alness is within about 2 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Alness is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, which means glazing joints and frame seals has to cope with a lot of rain.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Alness Academy, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Alness station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

What happens if it’s left?
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
