What the job involves on each surface

Shower screens

Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.

Conservatory frames

Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.

About our glazing silicone in Duffus

Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Weather and movement take their toll, and once it cracks, water follows. Resealing puts that right. If you’re dealing with stained, discoloured glazing silicone and failed sealant around rooflight glass, we can help.

Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Duffus depends on the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Leave it or put it right?

A new conservatory roof is a big job. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we will tell you. Around Duffus, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.

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.

Duffus: your questions answered

Can you do glazing silicone in Duffus?

Yes, Duffus is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Does the coastal weather in Duffus affect outside sealant?

Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.

Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?

New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. We cut out the old sealant first.

How long should I leave it?

Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.

How much does glazing silicone cost in Duffus?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work has a 12-month guarantee.

Do you replace glass?

That’s not something we do. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing by a glazier.

Is balustrade sealant something you do?

We can. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint with a suitable product.

How we quote for glazing silicone

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

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The size of the job
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What we need to know

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • The rough size of the job
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • A few pictures by email, if you can

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that is easy.

Aftercare tips

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
  • Open vents or windows to let moisture out
  • Wipe the screen down after showering
  • Look over the glazing joints once a year

Check the joints once a year. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.

Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.

Windows and doors in Duffus

Duffus is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.

In and around Duffus, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Homes close to Parish Church include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

What happens on the day

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs for a typical job. Around Duffus, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. We inspect the work and test it where we can.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the work
