Glazing silicone in Letham

What happens on the day

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs in most cases. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
  2. The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
  3. The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
  4. Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
  5. The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Glazing silicone in Letham, done properly

Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks generally come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We work on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-glass joints and conservatory frames, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and cracked silicone between glass panels.

Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Letham depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.

Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Fife.

Leave it or put it right?

Replacing windows or a shower screen is not needed for a failed joint. Sound glass and frames normally just need resealing, and we’ll tell you if that’s not the case. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why choose Mr Mastic in Letham

  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • We agree the colour with you first
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • Domestic, commercial and hotel work

Landlords, agents and businesses in Letham

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.

How to look after the new joints

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Avoid scraping close to the bead
  • Act on drips or damp patches early
  • Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
  • Inspect the sealant on glazing annually

Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.

Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
  • Cracked or broken glass
  • Failed flashing around a conservatory

If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Conservatory frames
  • Rooflights
  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Shower screens

How the job changes by surface

Shower screens

Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.

Rooflights

Water around a rooflight isn’t always the sealant. We find the cause first.

Windows and doors in Letham

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. Historic houses like Hill of Tarvit (about 4.7 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Letham has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.

If you live in an older home near Monimail Parish Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. If you let a flat or house near Ladybank station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
