How we quote for glazing silicone

- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How easy the joints are to reach
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, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Whether it has been sealed before
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Kincorth
Glass replacement isn’t something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints and that’s often where the water gets in. If you are dealing with sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and failed joints on frameless glass, we can help.
Tenement flats in Scotland’s cities often have windows high above the street, where failing mastic is easy to miss. Access is the first thing to plan for a job in Kincorth, and in a tenement the outside of the building may be a shared repair.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Aberdeen.

What we are called out for in Kincorth
Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly, the bead can peel away early.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Water running down inside the glass
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
Schools such as Lochside Academy are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
What your quote should include
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- What guarantee comes with the work
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Parking in city streets around Kincorth can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
Kincorth homes and the weather
Kincorth 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. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
In the older streets around Ruthrieston South Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Letting a property close to Aberdeen station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
Kincorth is about 2 miles south of Aberdeen, in Aberdeen. From the centre of Kincorth to the outskirts, glazing silicone is available for homes and businesses alike, from flats and houses to offices and hotels. Our Aberdeen coverage runs to 63 places, and Kincorth is one of them.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Kincorth
Do you work for landlords with property near Aberdeen station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Kincorth any different?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours for most jobs. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Kincorth, along with the rest of our area.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. The old bead always comes out first.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
Why act early in Kincorth
Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before it shows. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in a tall building in Kincorth, damp can travel a long way before it shows.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What we can’t put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. It won’t solve:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Glass that needs replacing
- Condensation trapped between two panes
