How we handle glazing silicone in Drumry
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. We work on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and shower screens, and people most often call us about mouldy sealant around glass panels and cracked silicone between glass panels.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Drumry depends on the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Look out for any of the following:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.

Do I have to be there?

Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
Often, if the leak is at a sealant joint. We trace the leak first, so you know what you’re paying for.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
