Glazing silicone in Middlebie, done properly

Not every silicone suits glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that’s suited to glass and the frame, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. If you have sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and split or lifting silicone on glass, we can help, on shower screens, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints alike.

Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain, so the mastic there works hard.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Do you need glazing silicone in Middlebie?

UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.

People generally contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Failed joints on frameless glass
  • Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
  • Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
  • Drips on the inside of a conservatory window

Around Middlebie, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What your quote should include

  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • How long the guarantee is
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • What insurance they hold

How to choose a mastic man

Landlord and commercial work in Middlebie

Letting agents and landlords in Middlebie can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Outdoor work around Middlebie depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

Before we arrive

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Different surfaces, different methods

Glass-to-frame joints

Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.

Shower screens

A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.

Why it’s worth doing now in Middlebie

Replacing windows or a shower screen isn’t needed for a failed joint. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes, and we will tell you if that’s not the case. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: 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 go through it with you.

Middlebie questions

Do you cover smaller places like Middlebie?

Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is there a guarantee on glazing silicone in Middlebie?

All our work, in Middlebie and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Which silicone is used for glass joints?

A neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.

Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?

Yes. The sealant joint at the base can be renewed. We don’t install or replace the glass.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once.

What do you put in the joint?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we’re fully insured.

Can I do it myself?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Middlebie homes and the weather

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.

Homes close to Middlebie Parish Church And Churchyard include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.
