How to look after the new joints

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
  • Open vents or windows to let moisture out
  • Don’t leave a drip for the next storm

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

Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.

About our glazing silicone in Bridge of Orchy

We do not replace glass, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that’s often where the water gets in. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and glass balustrade bases, and people most often call us about failed joints on frameless glass and water running down inside the glass.

Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Bridge of Orchy depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

When something else is needed

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • A roof that has moved or dropped
  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
  • A frame that needs repairing or replacing

If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we seal

  • Conservatory frames
  • Rooflights
  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Shower screens
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Glass-to-frame joints

Why it’s worth doing now in Bridge of Orchy

If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant won’t help. We’ll tell you that rather than seal it anyway, so you can call the right trade. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

What we are called out for in Bridge of Orchy

Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
  • Glass-to-glass joints that have split
  • Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant

Around Bridge of Orchy, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How the visit works

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, 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. Outside jobs in Bridge of Orchy need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.

  1. First we agree the joints to be done.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. We clean and prepare the joint.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. We inspect the work and test it where we can.

Preparing for the visit

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice

Frames and glazing around Bridge of Orchy

Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with 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 landlords with property near Bridge of Orchy station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
