About our glazing silicone in Burnmouth
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. If you’re dealing with water escaping where a screen meets the wall and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, we can put it right, on shower screens, conservatory frames and glass balustrade bases alike.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Act on drips or damp patches early
Check the joints once a year. Catching a split early keeps the repair small.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
Questions from Burnmouth
Does the coastal weather in Burnmouth affect outside sealant?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Will you come out to Burnmouth?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What guarantee do I get?
You get our 12-month guarantee to every job we do.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we are fully insured.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. The old bead always comes out first.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Burnmouth.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job for a typical job. Around Burnmouth, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- 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.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Frames and glazing around Burnmouth
Burnmouth is within about 1 mile 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. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Letting a property close to Reston station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
In and around Burnmouth, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Why it’s worth doing now in Burnmouth
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. In a place like Burnmouth, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
