Problem with your glazing joints in Banbhaidh? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Glazing silicone in Banbhaidh, done properly
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Resealing puts that right. If you are dealing with leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and drips on the inside of a conservatory window, we can help.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Windows and doors in Banbhaidh
Banbhaidh is within about 3 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. 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.
In and around Banbhaidh, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you let a flat or house near Banavie station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What affects the quote in Banbhaidh
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Access and height
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
What to tell us for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- The address or postcode of the job
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Banbhaidh may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
Why deal with it now?
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. In a place like Banbhaidh, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

When it is not the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- A broken pane or roof panel
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Rooflights
Rooflights get the full force of the weather. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.
Banbhaidh questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Banavie station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Does the coastal weather in Banbhaidh affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
It depends on the cause. Sealant joints we can renew, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we’ll quote it together.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed, and a glazier needs to replace it.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
