How we handle glazing silicone in Newton Stewart
We don’t replace glass, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that’s often where the water gets in. We work on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and new silicone smeared over old sealant.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Newton Stewart is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Should I try it myself first?
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. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Frames and glazing around Newton Stewart
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.
If you look after a building such as Douglas Ewart High School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Not every leak is a sealant problem: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. That is why we trace the leak first.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last

Newton Stewart: your questions answered
Can you do glazing silicone in Newton Stewart?
Yes, Newton Stewart is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is glazing silicone in Newton Stewart guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we will agree it with you first.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we are fully insured.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Do you replace glass?
No. A misted unit has failed inside, and a glazier needs to replace it.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. 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.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
