Glazing silicone in Evie
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. If you are dealing with a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, we can put it right, on rooflights, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints alike.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Evie homes and the weather
Evie is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Whether the job is in Evie itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Evie is about 11 miles north-west of Kirkwall, in the Orkney Islands. For glazing silicone in and around Evie, it’s easy to get a quote: please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

When to call us in Evie
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
Look out for these signs:
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Water running down inside the glass
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Rooflight joints letting water in
In and around Evie, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What guarantee comes with the work
Why it’s worth doing now in Evie
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before it shows. In an older home around Evie, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Evie
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Every job guaranteed for a year
What affects the quote in Evie
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- Access and height
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- If someone has resealed it before
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- What’s wrong with the joints now
We quote each job on its own. Simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Old sealant is removed carefully from the glass and reseal with glazing silicone.
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.
Common questions in Evie
Will you come out to Evie?
Yes. Evie is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is Evie in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Evie is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you’ll get one quote.
What guarantee do I get?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to every job we do.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
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.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
When something else is needed
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
If you are not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
