Leave it or put it right?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Kelty
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We find the joint that’s letting water in and renew it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. Common call-outs are for shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away, across glass balustrade bases, rooflights and glass-to-frame joints.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Kelty is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in

Windows and doors in Kelty
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, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
For landlords with property near Cowdenbeath station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. In the older streets around Parish Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Common questions in Kelty
Do you work for landlords with property near Cowdenbeath station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can you do glazing silicone in Kelty?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Kelty is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
Glass needs a sealant made for glazing. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone with anti-fungal products in bathrooms.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we will say so.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Do you need glazing silicone in Kelty?
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
Schools such as Beath High School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We renew it without marking the glass.
Conservatory frames
Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. We reseal them with a sealant suited to the frame.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Cracked or broken glass
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.
