When to call us in Pitkerro

Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.

People normally contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Glass-to-glass joints that have split
  • Leaks from the base of a shower screen
  • Mouldy sealant around glass panels
  • Rooflight joints letting water in

In the older streets around St Ninian's Episcopal Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

10 questions to ask before you book

Glazing silicone in Pitkerro

Across Pitkerro, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job. We work on glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and rooflights, and people most often call us about mouldy sealant around glass panels and split or lifting silicone on glass.

Pitkerro is in one of Scotland’s four big cities, where many older buildings are sandstone or granite. Stone needs a sealant that suits it, which normally means a neutral-cure product or a traditional sand mastic rather than an acetoxy silicone.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How it works

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs in most cases. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. For a job in Pitkerro, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. We inspect the work and test it where we can.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice

What sealant work cannot fix

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Glass that needs replacing
  • Frames that have decayed or split
  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)

If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Rooflights
  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Shower screens
  • Conservatory frames

Different surfaces, different methods

Conservatory frames

Frame joints face sun and rain all year. Renewed sealant keeps water out.

Glass balustrade bases

The base joint is cut out and resealed. Glass fitting is a separate trade.

Can I do it myself?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is 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.

What glazing silicone looks like in Pitkerro

Pitkerro is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.

Letting a property close to Dundee station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as Craigie High School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

What affects the quote in Pitkerro

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • The size of the job
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Asking for a quote

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • Whether it has been sealed before

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pitkerro

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Questions from Pitkerro

I let a flat near Dundee station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Does the coastal weather in Pitkerro affect outside sealant?

Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is it worth trying it myself?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

What sealant do you use on glazing?

A neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.

Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?

In many cases, as long as sealant is the cause. We trace the leak first before any sealing.

How much does glazing silicone cost in Pitkerro?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.

How long does the job take?

Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.
