Glazing silicone in Avongrove

Glass replacement is not something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints and that is often where the water gets in. If you have new silicone smeared over old sealant and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray, we can put it right.

Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Surface by surface

Conservatory frames

Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. We reseal them with a sealant suited to the frame.

Glass-to-frame joints

Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. A failed bead lets water in.

What we can’t put right

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
  • Cracked or broken glass
  • Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint

Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

What glazing silicone looks like in Avongrove

Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with 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.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Earnock High School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you live in an older home near Hamilton South Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.

How the visit works

You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for most jobs in most cases. Outdoor work around Avongrove depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.

  1. We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
  2. We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
  3. We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
  4. We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
  5. We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Aftercare tips

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Wipe the screen down after showering
  • Look over the glazing joints once a year
  • Check the gutters above the glazing for debris

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

Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.

Avongrove questions

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hamilton Central station?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Do you cover Avongrove for glazing silicone?

Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Avongrove is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

How long should I leave it?

Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.

Is it worth trying it myself?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.

How long does the job take?

Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.

Do the sealants smell?

Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.

Is it messy?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Where are you based?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Avongrove.

What happens if it’s left?

Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Common problems we fix in Avongrove

Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
  • Mouldy sealant around glass panels
  • Silicone pulling away from the glass
  • Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints

For landlords with property near Hamilton Central station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
