Glazing silicone for Ochiltree homes and businesses

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Ochiltree

A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. We are often asked to deal with split or lifting silicone on glass and mouldy sealant around glass panels, on rooflights, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints.

Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain, so the mastic there works hard.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

How the visit works

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. First we agree the joints to be done.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. We inspect the work and test it where we can.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Can I do it myself?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
  • Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
  • Check the silicone on glass every year or so
  • Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves

Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and let the room air. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.

Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.

Common problems we fix in Ochiltree

Sealant laid over old sealant does not last. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Glass-to-glass joints that have split
  • Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
  • A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
  • Failed sealant around rooflight glass

Homes close to Ochiltree Parish Church include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

10 questions to ask before you book

Ochiltree: your questions answered

Is Ochiltree in your area for glazing silicone?

Yes, Ochiltree is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Auchinleck station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

How long will you be here?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Bigger jobs take longer.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.

Do you replace glass?

No, our work is the silicone. Glass and sealed units need a glazier.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.

Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?

It depends on the cause. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed but roof and panel problems need another trade.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we’re fully insured.

What happens if it’s left?

Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. A small leak can reach the floor below before it shows. In an older home around Ochiltree, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.

Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Why us?

  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
  • We never seal over old sealant
  • Full insurance on every job
  • A choice of colours where the product allows

  • A sealed unit that has misted inside
  • Rotten or badly damaged frames
  • Glass that needs replacing

If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.

Frames and glazing around Ochiltree

Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Ochiltree 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.

If you let a flat or house near Auchinleck station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
