About our glazing silicone in Craigmore

Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, and the silicone between them takes the strain. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. If you have split or lifting silicone on glass and cracked silicone between glass panels, we can put it right, on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-frame joints alike.

Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Craigmore is planned around the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

What affects the quote in Craigmore

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The product the joint needs
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Any mould that needs treating

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

What to tell us for a quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • Where the property is
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

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

Leave it or put it right?

Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. In a place like Craigmore, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Squeegee the shower screen after each use

Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.

Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. It may be sealant, or something else, and we will tell you which.

Craigmore: your questions answered

Does the coastal weather in Craigmore affect outside sealant?

Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.

Is Craigmore within the area you cover?

Yes, Craigmore is covered. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Which products do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Craigmore.

Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?

Often, if the leak is at a sealant joint. We find where the water gets in first, so you know what you’re paying for.

Signs you need glazing silicone in Craigmore

Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Some products do not bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
  • Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
  • Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
  • Failed joints on frameless glass

Managing a site like Rothesay Academy? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

How to choose a mastic man

Craigmore homes and the weather

Craigmore 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. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. With historic houses such as Ascog House (about 1.3 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Craigmore as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.

For an older house near a landmark such as Trinity Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
