Glazing Silicone in Craignure
Problem with your glazing joints in Craignure? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Craignure
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks usually come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. If you are dealing with drips on the inside of a conservatory window and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, we can help, 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.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take 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, and the visit is planned around that.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

What else we do in Craignure
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
Landlord and commercial work in Craignure
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Craignure and across Argyll and Bute. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured for the work.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames
- Rooflights
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-frame joints
Signs you need glazing silicone in Craignure
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature, and they do not move by the same amount. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Failed joints on frameless glass
For an older house near a landmark such as Torosay Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

Frames and glazing around Craignure
Craignure is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
In and around Craignure, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Craignure: your questions answered
Do you cover Craignure for glazing silicone?
Yes, Craignure is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Craignure?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
That’s not something we do. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed, and a glazier needs to replace it.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
How long does the job take?
That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. We will tell you when we quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. A failed bead lets water in.
Rooflights
Water around a rooflight is not always the sealant. We check which it is.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Access and height
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many areas need sealing
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Where the property is
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details, and photos are welcome.
