There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.

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

About our glazing silicone in Possilpark

Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. Common call-outs are for water running down inside the glass and mouldy sealant around glass panels, on conservatory frames, shower screens and rooflights.

Sash and case windows are a feature of older tenements in all four Scottish cities, and plenty still have them. Whether you’re in a tenement flat or a house in Possilpark, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps the weather out.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use gentle products around the joints
  • Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
  • Look over the glazing joints once a year

Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.

Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.

What happens on the day

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. The work usually takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In a city area like Possilpark, parking may be by permit or pay-and-display, so tell us what’s nearby. If you’re 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. We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
  5. We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice

What sealant work can’t fix

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • Structural problems with a conservatory roof
  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
  • A sealed unit that has misted inside

If you are not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Possilpark

Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased the sealant may lift within a few years.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Failed sealant around rooflight glass
  • Water tracking down the inner face of the glass

For landlords with property near Ashfield station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What insurance they hold
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

Surface by surface

Glass balustrade bases

Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. A sound sealant joint keeps them tidy and dry.

Rooflights

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

What glazing silicone looks like in Possilpark

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.

Schools such as St Aloysius' College are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near St Teresa's R C Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Can I do it myself?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

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, then guaranteed for a year.
