Glazing silicone in Na h-Eileanan Siar: how it works

Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We find the joint that’s letting water in and renew it, and if it’s something sealant cannot fix, we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include silicone pulling away from the glass and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, on shower screens, rooflights and conservatory frames.

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, and the area is left clean.

We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.

Frames and weather across Na h-Eileanan Siar

Across Na h-Eileanan Siar, from Stornoway, Tarbert and Plasterfield 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 Na h-Eileanan Siar. Along the coast in Na h-Eileanan Siar, window and wall joints facing the sea take the brunt of the weather, so they’re often the first to fail. Good preparation and the right sealant help it cope.

Stornoway: In and around Stornoway, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For jobs in and around Stornoway, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Why act early?

Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. A small leak can reach the floor below before you notice.

Shower screens

A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.

Glass balustrade bases

Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
Get a new leak looked at quickly
Open vents or windows to let moisture out

Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.

Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with right away.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

How many areas need sealing
The size of the job
Access and height
Any working-time requirements on site

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before we start.

What we need to know

To help us quote quickly, let us know:

The type of property
Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Pictures of the joints, sent by email
The problem you’ve noticed

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that is easy.

When something else is needed

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:

A roof that has moved or dropped
Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
Glass that needs replacing

Common questions in Na h-Eileanan Siar

Will there be a smell?

Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?

Yes. We remove the old silicone carefully before cleaning and resealing.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Na h-Eileanan Siar, along with the rest of our area.

Is it messy?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?

Glass replacement is not our trade. We look after the sealant joints and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.
