Glazing silicone in Candy Mill
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We work on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are failed sealant around rooflight glass and glass-to-glass joints that have split.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First we agree the joints to be done.

Advice
Candy Mill questions
What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Candy Mill?
All our work, in Candy Mill and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover smaller places like Candy Mill?
Yes. Candy Mill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. We will tell you when we quote.
What does glazing silicone cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
When it isn’t the sealant
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Cracked or broken glass
- Frames that have decayed or split
If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-frame joints
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix, before water gets in.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below before you spot it.
Candy Mill homes and the weather
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
For jobs in and around Candy Mill, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish. Around Candy Mill, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Candy Mill
Replacing windows or a shower screen is not needed for a failed joint. Sound glass and frames usually just need resealing. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
