About our glazing silicone in Little Dunkeld
Not every silicone suits glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We’re often asked to deal with rooflight joints letting water in and glass-to-glass joints that have split, across rooflights, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Little Dunkeld depends on the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

What we are called out for in Little Dunkeld
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
If you live in an older home near Little Dunkeld Parish Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Questions from Little Dunkeld
Do you cover smaller places like Little Dunkeld?
Yes. Little Dunkeld is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Dunkeld & Birnam station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we’ll say so.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No, our work is the silicone. Glass and sealed units need a glazier.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
What does glazing silicone cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.
How long should I leave it?
It depends on the product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Why deal with it now?
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant will not help. We’ll tell you that rather than seal it anyway and point you to a glazier or roofer. Around Little Dunkeld, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What glazing silicone looks like in Little Dunkeld
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. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Rented homes near Dunkeld & Birnam station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours for most jobs, depending on the amount of work. Outside jobs in Little Dunkeld need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
