Landlord and commercial work in Inverlochy
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Glazing silicone in Inverlochy
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that is suited to glass and the frame, finished with a neat, even bead. We work on glass balustrade bases, shower screens and rooflights, and common reasons people get in touch are rooflight joints letting water in and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

How we quote for glazing silicone
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- When we can work, for business premises
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The size of the job
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.
When to call us in Inverlochy
Sealant laid over old sealant does not last. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out leaving a path for water.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
What your quote should include
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether VAT is included
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for most jobs. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally 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.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear the area around the work

Common questions in Inverlochy
I let a flat near Fort William station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Inverlochy?
Yes, Inverlochy is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Inverlochy and the rest of Highland.
What guarantee do I get?
You get our one-year guarantee on all our work.
Inverlochy homes and the weather
Inverlochy is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
If you look after a building such as Lochaber High School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Fort William station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Inverlochy is about 32 miles north-east of Oban, in Highland. We carry out glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Inverlochy and the surrounding area, as part of our work across Highland. Inverlochy is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland we cover for glazing silicone. Glasgow is on our list too, around 74 miles away.
Our applicators cover all of PH33 for glazing silicone. You’ll find streets such as Croft Road, North Road and Nevis Road, and we cover them all. Close by, we work in Taobh Lochaidh (1 mile north), Fort William (1 mile south-west), Caol (1 mile north), Banbhaidh (1 mile north) and Corpach (2 miles north-west). For island and remote addresses, the job takes a little more planning.
Around Inverlochy
Typical jobs here are in homes near Black Parks, Bun-sgoil Ghàidhlig Loch Abar and The Great Glen pub and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Fort William station, about 0.5 miles south-west of the centre. Well-known places in the area include West Highland Museum (0.8 miles south-west) and Inverlochy Castle Hotel (2 miles north-east).
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
