Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Caddonfoot
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. Typical jobs include water tracking down the inner face of the glass and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, on conservatory frames, shower screens and glass balustrade bases.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
Windows and doors in Caddonfoot
Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.

Common problems we fix in Caddonfoot
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.
Look out for these signs:
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
Peel House, about 1 mile west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Caddonfoot, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.

Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.
Why act early in Caddonfoot
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber so early action saves a bigger repair. Around Caddonfoot, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
