Why act early in Jackton
Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before you notice. In a place like Jackton, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

How we handle glazing silicone in Jackton
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone that is suited to glass and the frame, finished with a neat, even bead. If you’re dealing with silicone pulling away from the glass and failed sealant around rooflight glass, we can put it right, on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames alike.
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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

How the job changes by surface
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 generally sealed. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a place like Jackton, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.
