About our glazing silicone in Milton

Sealant on glazing does not last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down and cracked joints let water in. Resealing puts that right. We work on glass-to-glass joints, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints, and the jobs we see most are leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and stained, discoloured glazing silicone.

Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Milton is planned around the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How it works

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
  2. We remove the old sealant carefully.
  3. We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
  4. A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

DIY versus a professional finish

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. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

When something else is needed

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:

  • Glass that needs replacing
  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
  • Frames that have decayed or split

If you are not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Rooflights
  • Shower screens
  • Conservatory frames
  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Glass-to-glass joints

What affects the quote in Milton

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • Access and height
  • How many areas need sealing
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • When we can work, for business premises

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

What to tell us for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Milton: your questions answered

Will you come out to Milton?

Yes, Milton is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Is Milton in your area for glazing silicone?

Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Milton is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in.

Do you fit new glass or sealed units?

We do not replace glass. We reseal the joints around it and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.

Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?

A top-up rarely holds. Fresh silicone will not bond to cured silicone, so we remove the old sealant and clean the joint.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

How to look after the new joints

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Open vents or windows to let moisture out
  • Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant

Clear the conservatory gutters regularly so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.

A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.

Milton homes and the weather

Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.

Around Milton, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it. For jobs in and around Milton, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Why deal with it now?

You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames generally just need resealing, 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 through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
