When to call us in Pitlochry
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.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
If you let a flat or house near Pitlochry station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Glazing silicone in Pitlochry, done properly
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. If you have drips on the inside of a conservatory window and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, we can put it right, on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass balustrade bases alike.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Pitlochry is planned around the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure silicone is the usual choice, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.

Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.

Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Frame joints face sun and rain all year. A fresh bead seals them again.
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with right away.
Windows and doors in Pitlochry
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
Homes close to Pitlochry Church of Scotland include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for most jobs from start to finish. Outside jobs in Pitlochry need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Pitlochry
A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
