How we handle glazing silicone in Craighouse

Glass replacement is not something we do, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass, which is where many leaks start. We work on shower screens, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases, and people most often call us about a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and drips on the inside of a conservatory window.

Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

How to look after the new joints

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

  • Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
  • Open vents or windows to let moisture out
  • Get a new leak looked at quickly
  • Keep harsh solvents off the silicone

On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. That slows mould growth on the bead.

If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.

Glazing silicone in Craighouse: local notes

Craighouse 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 sound outside sealant is part of that.

In the older streets around Craighouse Parish Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Leave it or put it right?

Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. A small leak can reach the floor below before it shows. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

What we do, step by step

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for most jobs from start to finish. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
  2. We remove the old sealant carefully.
  3. We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
  4. A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

Preparing for the visit

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
