How we handle glazing silicone in Mastrick
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. If you’re dealing with rooflight joints letting water in and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, we can help, on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-glass joints and rooflights alike.
Mastrick is in one of Scotland’s four big cities, where many older buildings are sandstone or granite. Stone needs a sealant that suits it, so acetoxy silicones, which can attack some stone, are best avoided.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What we’re called out for in Mastrick
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
The most common problems we see are:
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
Friendville, about 1.9 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Mastrick.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Mastrick
Is Mastrick in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Mastrick is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Who arranges sealant work on the shared parts of a tenement in Mastrick?
The owners of the flats normally agree repairs to shared parts like the roof and outside walls, and many buildings have a factor to arrange it. The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 sets out how that works where the title deeds do not. Your title deeds will say who owns the windows.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What does glazing silicone cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Advice
Surface by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. A full reseal sorts it.
Windows and doors in Mastrick
Aberdeen’s nickname, the Granite City, comes from its stone buildings, and granite is hard and dense, so any sealant against it needs clean, sound edges to grip. With historic houses such as Friendville (about 1.9 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Mastrick as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Rented homes near Aberdeen station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Schools such as Northfield Academy are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
