About glazing silicone in Angus

Glass and frames expand and contract differently, and the silicone between them takes the strain. 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 glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-frame joints, and the jobs we see most are water getting into a conservatory at the joints and drips on the inside of a conservatory window.

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing.

We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.

What you’ll pay

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Local landmarks in Arbroath

In Arbroath, that means homes and buildings near Arbroath High School, Knox's Church and The Corn Exchange pub, among other places. There’s a railway station in Arbroath itself: Arbroath station. Other landmarks nearby include Arbroath Signal Tower Museum (0.6 miles south) and Arbroath Infirmary (0.6 miles south).

Frames and weather across Angus

Across Angus, from Arbroath, Forfar and Carnoustie outwards, frames range from older timber to modern uPVC and aluminium. Each needs the right sealant, and every joint wears out eventually.

Scottish weather is hard on outside joints, especially in the wetter west, while generally soft water means less limescale indoors but no less mould. That shapes the choice of sealant for jobs across Angus. Parts of Angus are on or near the coast, where wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are hard on outside sealant. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.

Arbroath: If you look after a building such as Arbroath High School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Rented homes near Arbroath station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

What affects the quote in Angus

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

Access and height
How many areas need sealing
Working hours on commercial sites
The old material and how stubborn it is

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

What we need to know

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Where the job is, and your postcode
The rough size of the job
How we’d reach the joints

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

A sealed unit that has misted inside
Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
Structural problems with a conservatory roof

Aftercare tips

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

Don’t use a blade near the sealant
Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth

Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.

A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls so it’s best dealt with right away.

Landlord and commercial work in Angus

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.

Should I try it myself first?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Angus

How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Angus?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Should I try DIY first?

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

How long does the job take?

Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Can you just put new silicone over the old?

Topping up is a common cause of leaks. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Where are you based?

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
