Why deal with it now?
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames normally just need resealing, and we will tell you if that is not the case. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Glazing silicone in Ferniegair
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We find the joint that’s letting water in and renew it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. If you’re dealing with failed sealant around rooflight glass and water tracking down the inner face of the glass, we can help, whatever the surface.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Frames and glazing around Ferniegair
Historic houses like Cambusnethan House (about 2.6 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Ferniegair has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
In the older streets around Ferniegair Mission Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Letting a property close to Chatelherault station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually 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 look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below before you spot it.
Do you need glazing silicone in Ferniegair?
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Some products don’t bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
Managing a site like Dalziel High School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Common questions in Ferniegair
Do you cover smaller places like Ferniegair?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you cover Ferniegair for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Ferniegair is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No, our work is the silicone. A glazier replaces glass and units.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
A top-up rarely holds. Fresh silicone will not bond to cured silicone so we take it all out and start clean.
What guarantee do I get?
All our work has a 12-month guarantee.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
How long does glazing silicone take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
How we quote for glazing silicone
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The amount of work
- The product the joint needs
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The type of property
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
