Glazing silicone in Partickhill

How we handle glazing silicone in Partickhill

Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Weather and movement take their toll and cracked joints let water in. Resealing puts that right. If you are dealing with sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and water running down inside the glass, we can help, whatever the surface.

Sash and case windows are a feature of older tenements in all four Scottish cities, though many have since been replaced. Whether you’re in a tenement flat or a house in Partickhill, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps the weather out.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The amount of work
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Helping us quote

You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.

What the job involves on each surface

Rooflights

A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.

Shower screens

Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We reseal without scratching the glass.

For landlords and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

When it isn’t the sealant

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • A roof that has moved or dropped
  • Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
  • Condensation trapped between two panes

Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

Frames and glazing around Partickhill

The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for glazing joints and frame seals to keep out. Much of Glasgow is built from red and blond sandstone, and sandstone is porous, so any sealant against it has to be one that won’t stain or attack it.

Historic houses such as Tenement House, about 1.6 miles east, show how far back building around Partickhill goes. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hyndland Secondary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Questions from Partickhill

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

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.

Can you do glazing silicone in Partickhill?

Yes, Partickhill is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.

Will the old sealant be removed?

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

What sealant do you use on glazing?

A neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.

Is it messy?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?

Yes, we do these often. We use anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.

Do you fit new glass or sealed units?

No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing by a glazier.

Can I do it myself?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Look over the glazing joints once a year
  • Stick to mild cleaners on glass
  • Avoid scraping close to the bead
  • Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves

On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.

Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part and we will find out which.

How the visit works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for most jobs. Parking in city streets around Partickhill can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. If you are in a flat, let us know how we get in at the street door.

  1. We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
  4. A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
