Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Drumoig
We don’t replace glass, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass, which is where many leaks start. Typical jobs include failed sealant around rooflight glass and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and conservatory frames.
In and around a place like Drumoig, homes range from older stone-built cottages to newer houses. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain, so the mastic there works hard.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

How we quote for glazing silicone
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Access and height
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- The address or postcode of the job
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job.
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but new silicone won’t bond to old, and the leak usually returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. In a place like Drumoig, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Drumoig homes and the weather
Drumoig is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Rented homes near Leuchars station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
