FAQs for Oatlands
How is work on the outside of a tenement in Oatlands generally arranged?
The owners of the flats generally agree repairs to shared parts like the roof and outside walls, and many buildings have a factor to arrange it. Where the title deeds are silent, the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 fills the gaps. Windows often belong to the individual flat, but it’s worth checking your deeds.
Do you work for landlords with property near Dalmarnock station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes, we do these often. We use anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Generally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we will agree it with you first.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Oatlands?
Yes, we do. Our applicators work in Oatlands.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes, where the base is finished with sealant. Photos help us see what’s there.
Glazing silicone in Oatlands, done properly
We do not replace glass, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. We work on glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints, and the jobs we see most are cracked silicone between glass panels and mouldy sealant around glass panels.
Oatlands is in one of Scotland’s four big cities, where many older buildings are sandstone or granite. Natural stone around older windows needs a sealant that won’t mark or attack it, so acetoxy silicones, which can attack some stone, are best avoided.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass balustrade bases
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames
Why act early in Oatlands
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant won’t help. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. For landlords in Oatlands, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

What glazing silicone looks like in Oatlands
Glasgow’s tenements are largely red and blond sandstone, and sandstone is porous, so any sealant against it has to be one that won’t stain or attack it. Oatlands is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for glazing joints and frame seals to keep out.
Schools such as John Bosco Secondary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. For landlords with property near Dalmarnock station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Historic houses such as Provand's Lordship, about 1.6 miles north, show how far back building around Oatlands goes, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.
Oatlands is about 2 miles south-east of Glasgow, in Glasgow. Every kind of property in Oatlands can book us for glazing silicone. The work is guaranteed for a year. Oatlands is one of 183 towns and villages in Glasgow we cover for glazing silicone.

How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most jobs, and the area is left clean. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. In Oatlands, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
