Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We renew it without marking the glass.
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We remove the failed sealant and renew it.
Glazing silicone in Tomintoul, done properly
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. If you have mouldy sealant around glass panels and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, we can put it right, on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and glass-to-frame joints alike.
In and around a place like Tomintoul, homes range from older stone-built cottages to newer houses. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a few hours for most jobs, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
How to get a quote
We don’t publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

When it is not the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Cracked or broken glass
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Wipe the screen down after showering
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below before you spot it.
Tomintoul homes and the weather
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
In and around Tomintoul, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

When to call us in Tomintoul
Not every leak is a sealant problem: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. That’s why we trace the leak first.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Water running down inside the glass
Whether the job is in Tomintoul itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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.
Common questions in Tomintoul
What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Tomintoul?
All our work, in Tomintoul and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will you come out to Tomintoul?
Yes. Tomintoul is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before we start.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
It does not last. Fresh silicone will not bond to cured silicone so we take it all out and start clean.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
What happens if it’s left?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone will not bond to old and water soon finds its way back. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. In a place like Tomintoul, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
