Newtyle: your questions answered
Do you cover Newtyle for glazing silicone?
Yes, Newtyle is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is there a guarantee on glazing silicone in Newtyle?
All our work, in Newtyle and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Newtyle and the rest of Perth and Kinross.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No. We renew the sealant. A glazier replaces glass and units.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A glazing-grade silicone is best. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Newtyle
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We work on rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases, and people most often call us about new silicone smeared over old sealant and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Do you need glazing silicone in Newtyle?
Silicone won’t bond to a dirty surface. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased the sealant may lift within a few years.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
Around Newtyle, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
Letting agents and landlords in Newtyle can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Should I try it myself first?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Outdoor work around Newtyle 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.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Frames and glazing around Newtyle
Historic houses like Balhary House (about 3.9 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Newtyle has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
Balhary House, about 3.9 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Newtyle.

Why act early in Newtyle
