Juniper Green questions
I let a flat near Wester Hailes station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Juniper Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
What does glazing silicone cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
We can. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint with a suitable product.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes, it’s a common job. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Juniper Green.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Juniper Green
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. If you are dealing with glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and cracked silicone between glass panels, we can help, on shower screens, rooflights and conservatory frames alike.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain, so the mastic there works hard.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Juniper Green and across Edinburgh.

Common problems we fix in Juniper Green
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead, and water gets between the layers.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
In and around Juniper Green, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a place like Juniper Green, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
What affects the quote in Juniper Green
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number and length of the joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
To get a quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.
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 are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What happens if it’s left?
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. A small leak can reach the floor below before you notice. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when you clean. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below before you spot it.

Glazing silicone in Juniper Green: local notes
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
For landlords with property near Wester Hailes station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
