About our glazing silicone in Currie
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Resealing puts that right. We are often asked to deal with leaks from the base of a shower screen and black or yellowed silicone on glass joints, on rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and shower screens.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill, so the mastic there works hard.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Why deal with it now?
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before you notice. 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.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Currie
Do you cover smaller places like Currie?
Yes, Currie is covered. 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.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Curriehill station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Topping up is a common cause of leaks. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes. The old bead comes off without marking the glass before cleaning and resealing.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Do you replace glass?
Glass replacement isn’t our trade. We look after the sealant joints and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.

Frames and glazing around Currie
Edinburgh’s Old and New Towns are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Georgian New Town is known for its sash windows. For listed homes and conservation areas, check with the council before changing how windows or walls look. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Schools such as Currie High School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you live in an older home near Currie Kirk, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. If you let a flat or house near Curriehill station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Currie is about 5 miles south-west of West Coates, in Edinburgh. Across the EH14 area, we can carry out glazing silicone at your property. Currie is one of 175 places in Edinburgh we cover for glazing silicone.
We cover every part of EH14 for glazing silicone and the streets around it. If you need glazing silicone at a property on Bryce Road, Palmer Road and Tweedie Lane or a nearby road, we can help. Close by, we work in Curriehill (1 mile north-west), Juniper Green (1 mile north-east), Torphin (1 mile east), Balerno (1 mile south-west) and Baberton (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Edinburgh (5 miles north-east), Leith (8 miles north-east), Bonnington (7 miles north-east), Greenside (6 miles north-east), Broughton (6 miles north-east) and Bellevue (6 miles north-east).
Local landmarks in Currie
In Currie, that means homes and buildings near Malleny Park and Juniper Green Parish Church and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Curriehill station, roughly 0.5 miles north-west. A little further out are Bavelaw Castle (3.2 miles south) and Craiglockhart Hydropathic (3 miles north-east). Not far away are Warklaw Hill and The New Leaf Co-op.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Conservatory frames
Frame joints face sun and rain all year. A fresh bead seals them again.
How we quote for glazing silicone
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The product the joint needs
- How much there is to do
- Any working-time requirements on site
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
