How we handle glazing silicone in Pitcairngreen
We don’t replace glass and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints and that’s often where the water gets in. Typical jobs include water tracking down the inner face of the glass and black or yellowed silicone on glass joints, on glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame 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.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Glazing silicone in Pitcairngreen: local notes
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Letting a property close to Perth station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
Glass balustrade bases
Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Advice
What sealant work cannot fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:

- Cracked or broken glass
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Pitcairngreen
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
If you look after a building such as Bertha Park High School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
