Croftamie questions
Will you come out to Croftamie?
Yes. Croftamie is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is glazing silicone in Croftamie guaranteed?
All our work, in Croftamie and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What does glazing silicone cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
How long should I leave it?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Croftamie
Glass replacement is not something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. If you have shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and failed joints on frameless glass, we can put it right.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

How the job changes by surface
Glass balustrade bases
Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. A full reseal sorts it.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Croftamie
Not every leak is a sealant problem: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. That is why we trace the leak first.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Water running down inside the glass
In and around Croftamie, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Croftamie
A leaking joint will not fix itself. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture so early action saves a bigger repair. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
