Glazing silicone in Lìonal, done properly
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. We are often asked to deal with leaks from the base of a shower screen and cracked silicone between glass panels, across rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Lìonal depends on the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
What happens if it’s left?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. 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 once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.

Lìonal: your questions answered
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Lìonal any different?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Do you cover Lìonal for glazing silicone?
Yes, Lìonal is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?

Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes, where the base is finished with sealant. Send us photos and we’ll take a look when you drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Do you do commercial work?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Frames and glazing around Lìonal
Lìonal 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. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, which means glazing joints and frame seals has to cope with a lot of rain.

The process

Related advice
What we’re called out for in Lìonal
New silicone over old silicone will not bond. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out leaving a path for water.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
Schools such as Lionel School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
