Glazing silicone in Kennishead

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Kennishead

Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away spoils the look and lets water in. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame and reseal the joint. Typical jobs include water running down inside the glass and new silicone smeared over old sealant, on rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and conservatory frames.

Scotland’s cities are full of stone-built tenements and terraces, in sandstone or granite. Natural stone around older windows needs a sealant that won’t mark or attack it, so acetoxy silicones, which can attack some stone, are best avoided.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Do you need glazing silicone in Kennishead?

Silicone won’t bond to a dirty surface. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased, the bead can peel away early.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
  • Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away

Letting a property close to Kennishead station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

10 questions to ask before booking

What glazing silicone looks like in Kennishead

Glasgow’s tenements are largely red and blond sandstone, and sandstone is porous, so any sealant against it has to be one that won’t stain or attack it. 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.

Pollok House, about 1 mile north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Kennishead. Schools such as Hillpark Secondary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Kennishead questions

Is Kennishead in your area for glazing silicone?

Yes, Kennishead is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Do you work for landlords with property near Kennishead station?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.

Is it messy?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Why not top up the existing silicone?

Many leaks we see come from exactly that. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.

Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, glazing sealant included.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Quotes for glazing silicone in Kennishead

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The number and length of the joints

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What to tell us for a quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • The type of property
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.

Leave it or put it right?

Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone won’t bond to old, and the leak generally returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. Private landlords in Kennishead must meet the Repairing Standard, and damp or leaks can fall short of it, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

For landlords and businesses

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

How it works

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Inside a flat in Kennishead, the job is planned with you; outside, shared parts may need the factor or other owners involved. Tell us which applies when you book.

  1. First we agree the joints to be done.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. We inspect the work and test it where we can.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
