How we handle glazing silicone in Craigton
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it, and if it’s something sealant cannot fix, we’ll tell you. We work on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-glass joints and glass-to-frame joints, and people most often call us about water escaping where a screen meets the wall and water running down inside the glass.
Tenement flats in Scotland’s cities often have windows high above the street, so the mastic outside can go unchecked for years. For a flat in Craigton, access is the first thing to plan.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Craigton as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Parking in city streets around Craigton can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Getting ready for the visit

What glazing silicone looks like in Craigton
Craigton is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, which means glazing joints and frame seals has to cope with a lot of rain. Under the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004, shared parts of a tenement, such as the roof and outside walls, are looked after by the owners together, often through a property factor. Windows usually belong to the flat, but the title deeds have the final say.
If you let a flat or house near Cardonald station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. Pollok House, about 1.6 miles south, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Craigton.

Craigton: your questions answered

Who arranges sealant work on the shared parts of a tenement in Craigton?
Most tenements arrange shared repairs through the owners or a property factor. The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 covers the common parts where the deeds do not.
What guarantee do I get?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If it’s a broken panel, failed unit or roof problem, we will tell you.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
It doesn’t last. Fresh silicone won’t bond to cured silicone so we take it all out and start clean.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What we’re called out for in Craigton
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly, the bead can peel away early.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
Schools such as Craigton Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Why deal with it now?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. In a tenement flat in Craigton, a failed seal is rarely just your problem: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
