Our glazing silicone service in Aberdeen
We do not replace glass and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints and that’s often where the water gets in. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and silicone pulling away from the glass.
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.

Windows and doors across Aberdeen
Across Aberdeen, from Rosemount, Berryden and Ferryhill outwards, frames range from older timber to modern uPVC and aluminium. Each needs the right sealant, and every joint wears out eventually.
The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, but outside joints take plenty of weather everywhere, while generally soft water means less limescale indoors but no less mould. That shapes the choice of sealant for jobs across Aberdeen. Coastal guest houses and holiday lets in Aberdeen can see heavy use in busy months, which is hard on sealant and grout, and the weather is hard on the outside too.
Aberdeen: If you live in an older home near Rutherford Church And Church Hall, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. Letting a property close to Aberdeen station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
What affects the quote in Aberdeen
There’s no set price list. What we look at:
- Whether the work is at height
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
- Any mould that needs treating
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What to tell us for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Roughly how big the job is
Quotes start with a quick conversation. 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, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Wipe the screen down after showering
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part and we’ll find out which.
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
Common problems we fix in Aberdeen
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out leaving a path for water.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
