About our glazing silicone in Kirkton of Auchterhouse
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks normally come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. We work on shower screens, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are leaks from the base of a shower screen and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill, so the mastic there works hard.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Kirkton of Auchterhouse and everywhere else we cover.

Common questions in Kirkton of Auchterhouse
Is there a guarantee on glazing silicone in Kirkton of Auchterhouse?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you do glazing silicone in Kirkton of Auchterhouse?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Kirkton of Auchterhouse is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we are fully insured.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before work begins.
Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Glazing silicone in Kirkton of Auchterhouse: local notes
Historic houses like Camperdown House (about 3.6 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Kirkton of Auchterhouse has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Dundee sits on the north bank of the Tay, and much of its older housing is sandstone tenements, so glazing joints and frame seals on walls facing the water can take plenty of weather.

What we’re called out for in Kirkton of Auchterhouse
UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
Around Kirkton of Auchterhouse, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Leave it or put it right?
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. 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.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
