Questions from Hamnavoe
Can you do glazing silicone in Hamnavoe?
Yes, Hamnavoe is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Hamnavoe any different?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No, our work is the silicone. A glazier replaces glass and units.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Hamnavoe
Not every silicone suits glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, finished with a neat, even bead. Typical jobs include failed joints on frameless glass and stained, discoloured glazing silicone, on glass-to-frame joints, glass-to-glass joints and glass balustrade bases.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Windows and doors in Hamnavoe
Hamnavoe is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so give us as much notice as you can.
In and around Hamnavoe, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For jobs in and around Hamnavoe, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
When it isn’t the sealant
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What happens if it’s left?
You do not need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames usually just need resealing, and we will tell you if that’s not the case. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

Glass balustrade bases
Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.
