- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Glass-to-frame joints
The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
About our glazing silicone in Craigens
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant, 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 can’t fix, we’ll tell you. If you have glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and cracked silicone between glass panels, we can help, on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-frame joints and conservatory frames alike.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Craigens is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we have gone.

What affects the quote in Craigens
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Access and height
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The rough size of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Your questions about glazing silicone in Craigens
Do you cover Craigens for glazing silicone?
Yes, Craigens is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Auchinleck station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Craigens?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
That’s not something we do. A misted unit has failed inside, and a glazier needs to replace it.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes. The old sealant is removed and the joint resealed using a sealant that suits the materials.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.
What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Craigens may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.

Frames and glazing around Craigens
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. Craigens is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for glazing joints and frame seals to keep out.
For landlords with property near Auchinleck station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Robert Burns Academy, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St. John, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Leave it or put it right?
You do not need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames generally just need resealing, and we will tell you if that is not the case. Around Craigens, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
