How we handle glazing silicone in Eastwood
Across Eastwood, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job, with a sealant chosen for the joint. We work on glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and shower screens, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting into a conservatory at the joints and water tracking down the inner face of the glass.
Sash and case windows are a feature of older tenements in all four Scottish cities, and plenty still have them. In Eastwood, as anywhere, the mastic between frame and wall is what stops draughts and rain getting in.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for most jobs from start to finish. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. For a job in Eastwood, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
Surface by surface
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. A full reseal sorts it.
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. A failed bead lets water in.
Your questions about glazing silicone in Eastwood
Can you do glazing silicone in Eastwood?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Eastwood is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
How do repairs to the shared parts of a tenement in Eastwood get organised?
It usually goes through the owners together, or through the factor if the building has one. The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 covers the common parts where the deeds don’t.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
Glass needs a sealant made for glazing. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
We can. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint using a sealant that suits the materials.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
How long does glazing silicone take?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Glazing silicone in Eastwood: local notes
Much of Glasgow is built from red and blond sandstone, and sandstone is porous, so any sealant against it has to be one that won’t stain or attack it. The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 sets out how owners share the upkeep of common parts like the roof and outside walls, and many buildings use a factor to arrange it. Windows normally belong to the flat, but the title deeds have the final say.
Rented homes near Thornliebank station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hillpark Secondary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Do not use blades or scrapers near the bead when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.
Do you need glazing silicone in Eastwood?
Some conservatory leaks are not sealant at all: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. We find the cause before we seal anything.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
Homes close to Pollokshaws Parish Church include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
