Moffat Mills Glazing Silicone
We cover Moffat Mills for glazing silicone for conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
Glazing silicone in Moffat Mills
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you are dealing with split or lifting silicone on glass and water running down inside the glass, we can put it right.
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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
Why act early in Moffat Mills
Leaks get worse, not better. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture, so it pays to deal with it early. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Frames and glazing around Moffat Mills
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. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
Rented homes near Drumgelloch station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Airdrie Academy, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

FAQs for Moffat Mills
Do you work for landlords with property near Drumgelloch station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Moffat Mills in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Moffat Mills is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
How long does glazing silicone take?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. A failed bead lets water in.
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs for a typical job. Outdoor work around Moffat Mills depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
