- Any mould that needs treating
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Drumlithie
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. If you’re dealing with leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and drips on the inside of a conservatory window, we can put it right.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Drumlithie depends on the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Outdoor work around Drumlithie depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Related advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that is often finished with sealant. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but new silicone will not bond to old and water soon finds its way back. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Drumlithie

When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Cracked or broken glass
- Frames that have decayed or split
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we are called out for in Drumlithie
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
For jobs in and around Drumlithie, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
