Glazing silicone in Upperton, done properly
Glass replacement is not something we do, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. Our work is the sealant joints and that is often where the water gets in. We work on conservatory frames, shower screens and glass-to-frame joints, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone pulling away from the glass and a quick top-up bead that didn’t last.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Upperton is planned around the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. A full reseal sorts it.
Glass balustrade bases
Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. A sound sealant joint keeps them tidy and dry.

Leave it or put it right?
Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We’ll tell you that rather than seal it anyway, so you can call the right trade. 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.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Will you come out to Upperton?
Yes. Upperton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How long does glazing silicone take?
A typical job takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What glazing silicone looks like in Upperton
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. 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.
If you let a flat or house near Caldercruix station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. In and around Upperton, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Outdoor work around Upperton depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.
