How we handle glazing silicone in Ashgrove
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. If you have water running down inside the glass and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, we can help.
In and around a place like Ashgrove, 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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What happens if it’s left?
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber so early action saves a bigger repair. In an older home around Ashgrove, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

Windows and doors in Ashgrove
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against 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.
Rented homes near Elgin station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you look after a building such as Elgin High School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
What we’re called out for in Ashgrove
Sealant laid over old sealant doesn’t last. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
In the older streets around St Columba's Church of Scotland, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
