About our glazing silicone in St Vigeans
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. We work on shower screens, conservatory frames and glass balustrade bases, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and stained, discoloured glazing silicone.
In and around a place like St Vigeans, 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Your questions about glazing silicone in St Vigeans
Does the coastal weather in St Vigeans affect outside sealant?
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.
Do you work for landlords with property near Arbroath station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes, it’s a common job. We use anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part and we will find out which.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The product the joint needs
- The size of the job
- Any working-time requirements on site
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- If someone has resealed it before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Roughly how big the job is

What else we do in St Vigeans
What glazing silicone looks like in St Vigeans
St Vigeans 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 sound outside sealant is part of that.
Schools such as Arbroath High School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. For an older house near a landmark such as St Vigeans Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Letting a property close to Arbroath station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours for most jobs, depending on how much there is to do. For a place like St Vigeans, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- 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.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

What happens if it’s left?
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. 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.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why book with us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- A choice of colours where the product allows

DIY versus a professional finish
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We reseal without scratching the glass.
