How we quote for glazing silicone

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The product the joint needs
  • The size of the job
  • Whether the work is at height
  • When we can work, for business premises

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What we need to know

When you call or email, it’s useful to know:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Glazing silicone in Dalserf

Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you’re dealing with split or lifting silicone on glass and stained, discoloured glazing silicone, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

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.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

What sealant work cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A sagging or failing conservatory roof
  • A broken pane or roof panel
  • Failed flashing around a conservatory

If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Shower screens
  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Rooflights
  • Conservatory frames

For landlords and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Should I try it myself first?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

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 do, step by step

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing for a typical job. Outdoor work around Dalserf depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.

  1. First, we check where the water gets in.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
  4. A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
  5. We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

FAQs for Dalserf

Do you work for landlords with property near Larkhall station?

What do you need from me for a quote?

A short description and the location. If we need more, we’ll ask.

Is there any odour?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.

How long does glazing silicone take?

That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. We’ll tell you when we quote.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Is balustrade sealant something you do?

We can. The old sealant is removed and the joint resealed with a suitable product.

Can I do it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

What glazing silicone looks like in Dalserf

Historic houses like Cambusnethan House (about 1.9 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Dalserf has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.

For an older house near a landmark such as Dalserf Kirk, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. If you look after a building such as Larkhall Academy, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. For landlords with property near Larkhall station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Why act early in Dalserf

A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but silicone does not stick to silicone, and the leak generally returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. In a place like Dalserf, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
