Surface by surface

Glass balustrade bases

We reseal the joint where the glass meets the base channel. We don’t install or replace glass.

Rooflights

Water around a rooflight isn’t always the sealant. We find the cause first.

About our glazing silicone in Corry

Not every silicone suits glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that’s suited to glass and the frame, finished with a neat, even bead. Common call-outs are for glass-to-glass joints that have split and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight, across glass balustrade bases, rooflights and conservatory frames.

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.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

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 chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

The process

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours for most jobs. Outdoor work around Corry depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.

  1. We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
  2. Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
  3. We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
  5. The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Common problems we fix in Corry

Silicone won’t bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
  • Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
  • Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant

Around Corry, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What insurance they hold

How to choose a mastic man

Why deal with it now?

Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone will not bond to old, and the leak generally returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. 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.

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Why book with us

  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • Old sealant always removed completely
  • Rated 4.9 stars on Google

What affects the quote in Corry

You will get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:

  • The number and length of the joints
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Access and height
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Asking for a quote

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
  • Cracked or broken glass
  • Rotten or badly damaged frames

If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

Corry: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Corry?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Is Corry in your area for glazing silicone?

Yes, Corry is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.

Will there be a smell?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

What information do you need?

A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.

Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?

Yes. The old bead comes off without marking the glass before cleaning and resealing.

What sealant do you use?

It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.

Glazing silicone in Corry: local notes

Corry is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for glazing joints and frame seals to keep out.

In the older streets around Broadford Parish Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Corry is in Highland. Whether you are in the middle of Corry or further out, glazing silicone is available for homes and businesses alike. Our area takes in 253 places across Highland.

Jobs for glazing silicone in IV49 works the same way as everywhere else we cover. That includes homes and businesses on Ford Road, Riverbank and Liveras Park. We also cover the places around Corry: An t-Àth Leathann (1 mile south), Blackpark (1 mile south-east), Harrapul (1 mile south-east), Kyleakin (7 miles east) and Kyle of Lochalsh (8 miles east). Island and remote addresses take a little more planning, so please mention your location when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
