Lumphanan Glazing Silicone
Problem with your glazing joints in Lumphanan? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Lumphanan
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-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints, and common reasons people get in touch are water escaping where a screen meets the wall and silicone pulling away from the glass.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Leave it or put it right?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but silicone does not stick to silicone and water soon finds its way back. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. 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.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The product the joint needs
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Whether it has been sealed before
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details, and pictures are welcome.
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. Leaks from the roof itself need a roofer.
Your questions about glazing silicone in Lumphanan
Do you cover smaller places like Lumphanan?
Yes. Lumphanan 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.
Is there a guarantee on glazing silicone in Lumphanan?
All our work, in Lumphanan and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
New silicone will not bond to old silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A glazing-grade silicone is best. Ours is a neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
We do not replace glass. We look after the sealant joints, and we’ll tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Frames and glazing around Lumphanan
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
If you live in an older home near Stothart Memorial Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

The process
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
Signs you need glazing silicone in Lumphanan
New silicone over old silicone will not bond. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out, and water gets between the layers.
Look out for any of the following:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
In and around Lumphanan, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.
