Surface by surface
Glass balustrade bases
Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. A sound sealant joint keeps them tidy and dry.
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Muir of Ord
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, and the silicone between them takes the strain. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. Common call-outs are for sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and rooflight joints letting water in, across glass balustrade bases, shower screens and glass-to-frame joints.
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.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Muir of Ord and across Highland.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Muir of Ord 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Gilchrist, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Questions from Muir of Ord
Is Muir of Ord within the area you cover?
Yes, Muir of Ord is covered. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Muir of Ord station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
That’s not something we do. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed, and a glazier needs to replace it.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, glazing sealant included.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, including preparation and clearing up. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Landlord and commercial work in Muir of Ord
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
What happens if it’s left?
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. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

Common problems we fix in Muir of Ord
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Water running down inside the glass
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
Letting a property close to Muir of Ord station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
