Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Tullos
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, and the silicone between them takes the strain. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. Common call-outs are for glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and glass-to-glass joints that have split, across conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and rooflights.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Signs you need glazing silicone in Tullos
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products do not bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
Rented homes near Aberdeen station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
What your quote should include
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How long the guarantee is
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.
The process
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Outside jobs in Tullos need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before it shows. 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.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Windows and doors in Tullos
Tullos is within about 1 mile 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 failed outside joints work against that.
Schools such as Torry Academy are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Homes close to Nigg Parish Church include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Questions from Tullos
Is Tullos within the area you cover?
Yes, Tullos is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Does the coastal weather in Tullos affect outside sealant?
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.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before we start.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.
Where are you based?
We are a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
Yes, we reseal the joint at the base channel. Fitting glass is a separate trade.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
You get our 12-month guarantee on all our work.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Surface by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Access and height
- The number and length of the joints
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any mould that needs treating
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
