DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Cullicudden
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. 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 shower screens, and the jobs we see most are sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and mouldy sealant around glass panels.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Cullicudden is planned around the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Cullicudden and across Highland.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Glass balustrade bases
The base joint is cut out and resealed. Glass fitting is a separate trade.
What affects the quote in Cullicudden
You will get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Roughly how big the job is
- The type of property
- Whether it has been sealed before
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.
Why act early in Cullicudden
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone won’t bond to old and water soon finds its way back. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. 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.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for most jobs and we leave things clean and tidy. Outside jobs in Cullicudden need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, 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.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Getting ready for the visit

Cullicudden homes and the weather
Cullicudden is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. With historic houses such as Novar House (about 3.2 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Cullicudden as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Homes close to Cullicudden Church and burial ground include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Rented homes near Alness station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Act on drips or damp patches early
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly so water does not back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.
