Why deal with it now?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but silicone does not stick to silicone and water soon finds its way back. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. In a tenement flat in Springboig, a failed seal is rarely just your problem: water can reach the flat below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-stopping affect the whole stair.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

How we handle glazing silicone in Springboig
Across Springboig, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method, with a sealant chosen for the joint. If you are dealing with rooflight joints letting water in and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, we can help.
Sash and case windows are a feature of older tenements in all four Scottish cities, though many have since been replaced. Whether you’re in a tenement flat or a house in Springboig, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps the weather out.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t solve:
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Springboig homes and the weather
The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 sets out how owners share the upkeep of common parts like the roof and outside walls, and many buildings use a factor to arrange it. Who owns the windows depends on the title deeds. Much of Glasgow is built from red and blond sandstone, and sandstone is porous, so any sealant against it has to be one that will not stain or attack it.
If you live in an older home near St Serf's Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. If you let a flat or house near Shettleston station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as St Andrew's Secondary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Landmarks near Springboig
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to Eastbank Academy and Parkhead Library, among other places. There’s a railway station in Springboig itself: Shettleston station. Other landmarks nearby include Lightburn Hospital (within half a mile west) and Tollcross Museum (1 mile south-west). Green spaces nearby include Lenzie Moss and Hogganfield Loch.
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Inside a flat in Springboig, the job is planned with you; outside, shared parts may need the factor or other owners involved. It helps to know which it is when you get in touch.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
Springboig questions
Do you cover Springboig for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Springboig is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Shettleston station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
Often, if the leak is at a sealant joint. We find where the water gets in first before any sealing.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A glazing-grade silicone is best. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No, our work is the silicone. Glass and sealed units need a glazier.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The amount of work
- Any working-time requirements on site
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before any work starts.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Roughly how big the job is
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
If you’re in Springboig and need glazing silicone, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and you will get a clear quote before we start.
How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-frame joints
We cut the old silicone from the glass without scratching it before new glazing silicone goes in.
Glass balustrade bases
Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. A sound sealant joint keeps them tidy and dry.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part and we’ll find out which.
