How it works
When we get to you, 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 a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Outdoor work around Fordoun depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Fordoun
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. Typical jobs include mouldy sealant around glass panels and cracked silicone between glass panels, across glass balustrade bases, rooflights and glass-to-frame joints.
In and around a place like Fordoun, homes range from older stone-built cottages to newer houses. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Glass balustrade bases
The base of a glass balustrade is normally sealed. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.

Glazing silicone in Fordoun: local notes
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
Around Fordoun, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it. Letting a property close to Laurencekirk station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Questions from Fordoun
Is Fordoun within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you cover Fordoun for glazing silicone?
Yes, Fordoun is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
All our work has a 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before any work starts.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Aberdeenshire.
Why it’s worth doing now in Fordoun
You do not need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames generally just need resealing, and we’ll tell you if that is not the case. Around Fordoun, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
When it isn’t the sealant
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Condensation trapped between two panes
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Frames that have decayed or split
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
