There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for most jobs, including the tidy-up. Around Heogan, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  3. We clean and prepare the joint.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

How we handle glazing silicone in Heogan

Glass replacement is not something we do, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that’s often where the water gets in. If you have leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and leaks from the base of a shower screen, we can put it right, on glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints alike.

Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Heogan depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.

Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Heogan and across the Shetland Islands.

Quotes for glazing silicone in Heogan

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • How much there is to do
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Working hours on commercial sites

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

What to tell us for a quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • Where the property is
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

Want a quote for glazing silicone? Please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details. You will know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.

What happens if it’s left?

You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames usually just need resealing. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Questions from Heogan

Is Heogan in your area for glazing silicone?

Yes, Heogan is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Does the coastal weather in Heogan affect outside sealant?

Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.

Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?

Yes, it’s a common job. We use anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we will agree it with you first.

How long will you be here?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Larger jobs naturally take longer.

What guarantee do I get?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?

Yes. The old sealant is removed and the joint resealed with a suitable product.

Heogan homes and the weather

Heogan 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. Island weather, with its wind and salt spray, is tough on glazing joints and frame seals.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Anderson High School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Look over the glazing joints once a year
  • Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Wipe the screen down after showering
  • Use gentle products around the joints

Keep conservatory gutters clear so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.

A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.

For landlords and businesses

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.

Landlords and letting agents in Heogan can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

What we are called out for in Heogan

New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
  • Silicone pulling away from the glass

Homes close to St Margaret's Roman Catholic Church include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What your quote should include

  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What product goes in the joint
  • What guarantee comes with the work
