Glazing silicone in Calderwood
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. If you have split or lifting silicone on glass and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

When to call us in Calderwood
Some conservatory leaks aren’t sealant at all: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. We find the cause before we seal anything.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
Rented homes near Kirknewton station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee
- How long to leave it before use
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Is VAT in the price?
Why deal with it now?
Resealing can’t fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly and point you to a glazier or roofer. In an older home around Calderwood, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
Why book with us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Rated 4.9 stars on Google
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild

Calderwood: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Calderwood?
Yes. Calderwood is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Kirknewton station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
We can. The old bead comes off without marking the glass, and the joints are cleaned and resealed.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Do you replace glass?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing by a glazier.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long does glazing silicone take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes a few hours for most jobs. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Act on drips or damp patches early
Keep conservatory gutters clear so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.
Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
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.
When it is not the sealant
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Glass that needs replacing
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
If you are not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames
- Rooflights
- Glass balustrade bases
