Glazing silicone in Dalmore
We work across Dalmore on glazing joints for homes and businesses. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job. We work on glass-to-glass joints, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases, and people most often call us about glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Dalmore and across Highland.

What we’re called out for in Dalmore
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould grows into the bead and the edges begin to peel.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
Schools such as Alness Academy are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Questions from Dalmore
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Alness station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Dalmore?
Yes. Dalmore is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
How long does glazing silicone take?
Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs, including preparation and clearing up. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We will 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.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Check the joints once a year. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.

Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. A full reseal sorts it.
How we quote for glazing silicone
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether the work is at height
- The number and length of the joints
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it has been sealed before
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.
The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, depending on the amount of work.

Related advice
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What glazing silicone looks like in Dalmore
Dalmore is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
If you live in an older home near Rosskeen Parish Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. For landlords with property near Alness station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
