- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
What we cannot put right
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Glazing silicone in North Roe
We work across North Roe on glazing joints for homes and businesses. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method, with a sealant chosen for the joint. If you have leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and split or lifting silicone on glass, we can help, whatever the surface.
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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Frames and glazing around North Roe
North Roe is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. 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.
Around North Roe, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.
North Roe is in the Shetland Islands. Anywhere in ZE2, we cover glazing silicone for homes and businesses. Our area takes in 63 places across the Shetland Islands, large and small.
We work across ZE2 for glazing silicone. Whether your property is on Mid Gard, Anniesland and Bayview or a nearby road, we can help. We also cover Ollaberry (5 miles south), Hogaland (6 miles south), Urafirth (8 miles south-west), Hillswick (9 miles south-west) and Braehoulland (10 miles south-west). Remote and island addresses need a little more planning, so tell us where you are when you ask for a quote.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in North Roe and across the Shetland Islands. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured for the work.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like North Roe may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Questions from North Roe
Do you cover smaller places like North Roe?
Yes. North Roe is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is North Roe in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and North Roe is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
What does glazing silicone cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No, our work is the silicone. A glazier replaces glass and units.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we are using.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.
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.
What affects the quote in North Roe
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
- Any mould that needs treating
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- The type of property
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The address or postcode of the job
We do not publish a price list. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Common problems we fix in North Roe
Some conservatory leaks aren’t sealant at all: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. That’s why we trace the leak first.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Water running down inside the glass
In the older streets around Methodist Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
What to look for in a quote
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Are they insured?
- How the colour is chosen
- When the joint can take water or movement
How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. A full reseal sorts it.
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
