About glazing silicone in Glasgow

Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away spoils the look and lets water in. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame and reseal the joint. Common call-outs are for stained, discoloured glazing silicone and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, across rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and shower screens.

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing for a typical job.

First, we check where the water gets in.
We remove the old sealant carefully.
We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

What you’ll pay

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Glazing silicone across Glasgow: local notes

In Glasgow, glazing silicone work takes in houses, flats, conservatories and commercial glazing, from Hillhead, Dowanhill and Woodlands to the quieter places in between. Every outside joint is sealed dry and clean, so the forecast plays its part.

The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, but outside joints take plenty of weather everywhere. Sealants for jobs in Glasgow are chosen with that in mind.

Glasgow: Tenement House, about 1 mile north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Glasgow. If you look after a building such as Our Lady and St Margaret's Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Why deal with it now?

Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead.

Questions to ask before booking

When the joint can take water or movement
What product goes in the joint
Who does the work, and how experienced they are
What insurance they hold

How we quote for glazing silicone

There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:

When we can work, for business premises
The size of the job
Whether the work is at height
Mould in or behind the old joints

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
Pictures of the joints, sent by email
How we’d reach the joints
The rough size of the job

Surface by surface

Shower screens

Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.

Rooflights

A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Glasgow

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too across Glasgow. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.

Why it fails

The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products do not bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

Cracked silicone between glass panels
Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
Rooflight joints letting water in
Leaks from the base of a shower screen

Questions from Glasgow

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Can I do it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?

Yes, it’s a common job. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Why not top up the existing silicone?

A top-up rarely holds. The new bead can’t grip the old one, so we remove the old sealant and clean the joint.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.

Do you seal glass balustrade bases?

We can. The old sealant is removed and the joint resealed with a suitable product.
