What glazing silicone looks like in Lochboisdale
Lochboisdale is within about 1 mile 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. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so the more notice, the better.
In and around Lochboisdale, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Whether the job is in Lochboisdale itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

How we handle glazing silicone in Lochboisdale
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and glass balustrade bases, and common reasons people get in touch are rooflight joints letting water in and water running down inside the glass.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill, so the mastic there works hard.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

Lochboisdale questions
Will you come out to Lochboisdale?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Does the coastal weather in Lochboisdale affect outside sealant?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
In many cases, as long as sealant is the cause. We trace the leak first before any sealing.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels across Na h-Eileanan Siar.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
Yes. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint with a suitable product.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What does glazing silicone cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
Do not use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with right away.
