About our glazing silicone in Lennie
We work across Lennie on glazing joints for homes and businesses. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method. If you’re dealing with black or yellowed silicone on glass joints and failed sealant around rooflight glass, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Windows and doors in Lennie
Lennie is within about 2 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. 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, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Rented homes near Edinburgh Gateway station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. Managing a site like Craigmount High School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Questions from Lennie
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Lennie?
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.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Edinburgh Gateway station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we will say so.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we are fully insured.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Lennie?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
What we’re called out for in Lennie
UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Water running down inside the glass
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
Caroline Park, about 4.1 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Lennie.

Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Outdoor work around Lennie depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
How to get a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.

Why deal with it now?
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames usually just need resealing. In a place like Lennie, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Why us?
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- We never seal over old sealant
- Full insurance on every job

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
