DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Glazing silicone in Lacasaidh
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. If you’re dealing with failed sealant around rooflight glass and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, we can put it right.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Lacasaidh is planned around the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we’re called out for in Lacasaidh
Sealant laid over old sealant doesn’t last. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead, and water gets between the layers.
Look out for these signs:
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Water running down inside the glass
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
For an older house near a landmark such as Kinloch Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Is VAT in the price?

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. The work usually takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Outside jobs in Lacasaidh need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

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 it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. Around Lacasaidh, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.

Questions from Lacasaidh
Can you do glazing silicone in Lacasaidh?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Lacasaidh is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Does the coastal weather in Lacasaidh affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Lacasaidh and the rest of Na h-Eileanan Siar, along with the rest of our area.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Lacasaidh?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
What sealant work can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Glass that needs replacing
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we quote for glazing silicone
You will get a clear quote before we start. It’s based on:
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Asking for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Frames and glazing around Lacasaidh
Lacasaidh is within about 1 mile of 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. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Around Lacasaidh, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.
