Windows and doors in Alyth

Historic houses like Balhary House (about 1.6 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Alyth has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s 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.

Around Alyth, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How we handle glazing silicone in Alyth

Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. We work on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are rooflight joints letting water in and cracked silicone between glass panels.

Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • A broken pane or roof panel
  • A roof that has moved or dropped
  • Condensation trapped between two panes

If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Where we work in Alyth

  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Rooflights
  • Shower screens
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Conservatory frames
  • Glass-to-frame joints

What affects the quote in Alyth

There’s no set price list. What we look at:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The product the joint needs
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

Asking for a quote

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Where the property is
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details.

Why deal with it now?

Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone won’t bond to old and water soon finds its way back. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. Around Alyth, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

What you get with us

  • We agree the colour with you first
  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
  • We leave the area clean and tidy
  • More than 20 years in sealant work

See how sealant jobs are priced or our reviews.

Common problems we fix in Alyth

Silicone won’t bond to a dirty surface. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased, the bead can peel away early.

The problems people generally mention when they call include:

  • Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
  • Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
  • Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
  • Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight

If you live in an older home near Parish Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • What insurance they hold
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

How to choose a mastic man

What the job involves on each surface

Shower screens

Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.

Rooflights

We reseal the glazing joints on rooflights. Leaks from the roof itself need a roofer.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Alyth

What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Alyth?

All our work, in Alyth and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Will you come out to Alyth?

Yes. Alyth is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

What should I tell you?

Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes, regularly. Several properties can go on one quote.

What sealant do you use on glazing?

A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames.

Will it make a mess?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

The process

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job in most cases. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. We inspect the work and test it where we can.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Getting a quote

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you are ready, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
