What sealant work cannot fix
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Glass that needs replacing
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal

Glazing silicone in Reay
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. Typical jobs include drips on the inside of a conservatory window and stained, discoloured glazing silicone, on glass-to-glass joints, glass-to-frame joints and shower screens.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Reay is planned around the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Highland.

Leave it or put it right?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint renewing the joint is the simpler fix. 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.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job in most cases. For a place like Reay, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Your questions about glazing silicone in Reay
Do you cover smaller places like Reay?
Yes. Reay is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Reay?
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 you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes, it’s a common job. We use anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Is the work guaranteed?
You get our one-year guarantee on all our work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Windows and doors in Reay
Reay 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. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
In and around Reay, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
