About our glazing silicone in Cromdale
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks usually come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We work on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and rooflights, and people most often call us about failed sealant around rooflight glass and glass-to-glass joints that have split.
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, so the mastic there works hard.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Cromdale as everywhere else we work.

Windows and doors in Cromdale
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Around Cromdale, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The type of sealant required
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The amount of work
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Where the property is
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you are ready, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Rooflights
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.
What we’re called out for in Cromdale
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
Homes close to Cromdale Parish Church include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Is VAT in the price?
- How hidden problems are handled
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first

FAQs for Cromdale
Do you cover Cromdale for glazing silicone?
Yes, Cromdale 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.
Is glazing silicone in Cromdale guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
New silicone will not bond to old silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
How long should I leave it?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How long does glazing silicone take?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Cromdale?
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. We agree the price before any work begins.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
