What we’re called out for in Red Craig
UV light ages silicone and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
Schools such as Forres Academy are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How long to leave it before use
- What preparation is included
- How much experience the applicator has
Glazing silicone in Red Craig
We work across Red Craig on glazing joints for homes and businesses. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method, with a sealant chosen for the joint. We work on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and rooflights, and people most often call us about mouldy sealant around glass panels and failed sealant around rooflight glass.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Why act early in Red Craig
You do not need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes, and we will tell you if that is not the case. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Why book with us
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Fully insured
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Every job guaranteed for a year
Red Craig: your questions answered
I let a flat near Forres station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Red Craig?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.
How long should I leave it?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
Yes. The sealant joint at the base can be renewed. We don’t install or replace the glass.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Do you replace glass?
We don’t replace glass. We look after the sealant joints and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
We can. We remove the old silicone carefully before cleaning and resealing.
How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. For a place like Red Craig, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- 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.

Before we arrive

What else we do in Red Craig
Red Craig homes and the weather
Red Craig is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. With historic houses such as Logie House (about 4.2 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Red Craig as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Letting a property close to Forres station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Historic houses such as Logie House, about 4.2 miles south, show how far back building around Red Craig goes, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

- Cracked or broken glass

Joints and surfaces we work on
- Glass balustrade bases
- Shower screens
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Conservatory frames
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Use gentle products around the joints
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below before you spot it.
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We find the cause first.
What affects the quote in Red Craig
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The product the joint needs
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- A few photos by email, if you can
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
