What affects the quote in Heiton
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
- The number of rooms or windows
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
- How we’d reach the joints
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Heiton
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, finished with a neat, even bead. If you have black or yellowed silicone on glass joints and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, we can put it right, on rooflights, glass balustrade bases and shower screens alike.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Heiton depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Heiton and everywhere else we cover.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
When to call us in Heiton
Some conservatory leaks are not sealant at all: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. That is why we trace the leak first.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
Around Heiton, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Questions to ask before booking
- What product goes in the joint
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- The length of the guarantee
- Who turns up on the day
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a few hours for most jobs. 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.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Questions from Heiton
Is glazing silicone in Heiton guaranteed?
All our work, in Heiton and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Heiton within the area you cover?
Yes. Heiton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Usually, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If it’s a broken panel, failed unit or roof problem, we’ll tell you.
How long should I leave it?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Glazing silicone in Heiton: local notes
Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
Homes close to Roxburgh Parish Church include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

When it isn’t the sealant
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Cracked or broken glass
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Shower screens
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Rooflights
- Conservatory frames
Why it’s worth doing now in Heiton
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. In an older home around Heiton, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
