About our glazing silicone in An t-Ob
Not every silicone suits glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone that is suited to glass and the frame, finished with a neat, even bead. If you have water tracking down the inner face of the glass and new silicone smeared over old sealant, we can put it right, on glass-to-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints alike.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in An t-Ob depends on the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

An t-Ob homes and the weather
An t-Ob is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. On the islands, wind and salt spray are hard on outside sealant.
Whether the job is in An t-Ob itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
An t-Ob is in Na h-Eileanan Siar. An t-Ob gets the same service as everywhere we cover: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. Our Na h-Eileanan Siar coverage runs to 87 places, and An t-Ob is one of them.
Postcode districts we cover here for glazing silicone: HS5. If you need glazing silicone at a property on Pier Road, Ferry Road and Strond Road or a nearby road, our applicators can take on the job. We also cover the places around An t-Ob: Leverburgh (1 mile south), Ruisgarry (7 miles south-west), Clachan Shannda (10 miles south-west), Direcleit (11 miles north-east) and Tarbert (12 miles north-east). Being one of Na h-Eileanan Siar’s larger places, An t-Ob has homes, rented property and businesses of every kind. Island and remote addresses take a little more planning, so tell us where you are when you ask for a quote.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

- A broken pane or roof panel
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we’re called out for in An t-Ob
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
In and around An t-Ob, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What your quote should include

What else we do in An t-Ob
Why it’s worth doing now in An t-Ob
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before it shows. In an older home around An t-Ob, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for most jobs. Outdoor work around An t-Ob depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

What affects the quote in An t-Ob
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How much there is to do
- Access and height
- Which sealant suits the joint
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Roughly how big the job is
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- A few pictures by email, if you can
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you are ready, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Your questions about glazing silicone in An t-Ob
Can you do glazing silicone in An t-Ob?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and An t-Ob is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Does the coastal weather in An t-Ob affect outside sealant?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
It does not last. The new bead can’t grip the old one so we take it all out and start clean.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
What does glazing silicone cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing and where.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
Our 12-month guarantee applies on all our work.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
Glass needs a sealant made for glazing. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Surface by surface
Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We find the cause first.
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
