Is Plasterfield within the area you cover?
Yes, Plasterfield is covered. We work across all of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?

Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.

How we handle glazing silicone in Plasterfield
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, and the silicone between them takes the strain. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. If you have drips on the inside of a conservatory window and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight, we can put it right, on conservatory frames, glass-to-glass joints and glass balustrade bases alike.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Plasterfield depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.
What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job and we leave things clean and tidy. Outdoor work around Plasterfield depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Should I try it myself first?
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.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.
Windows and doors in Plasterfield
Plasterfield is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, which means glazing joints and frame seals has to cope with a lot of rain.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Why deal with it now?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
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 for an honest opinion and a quote.
