Glazing silicone in Sanndabhaig
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We work on glass-to-frame joints, glass-to-glass joints and rooflights, and people most often call us about glass-to-glass joints that have split and leaks from the base of a shower screen.
In and around a place like Sanndabhaig, homes range from older stone-built cottages to newer houses. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain, so the mastic there works hard.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Different surfaces, different methods
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.
Rooflights
We reseal the glazing joints on rooflights. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.

When to call us in Sanndabhaig
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould grows into the bead and the edges begin to peel.
People usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
Around Sanndabhaig, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Sanndabhaig
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. Around Sanndabhaig, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls so it’s best dealt with straight away.
Sanndabhaig homes and the weather
Sanndabhaig is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Whether the job is in Sanndabhaig itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Sanndabhaig: your questions answered
Is Sanndabhaig in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Sanndabhaig is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Sanndabhaig any different?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are usually the first to need attention.
How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Sanndabhaig?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
Topping up is a common cause of leaks. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
