Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Eastfield
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We find the joint that is letting water in and renew it, and if it’s something sealant cannot fix, we will tell you. If you’re dealing with mouldy sealant around glass panels and leaks from the base of a shower screen, we can help, on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and conservatory frames alike.
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.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Eastfield homes and the weather
Eastfield is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
If you let a flat or house near Brunstane station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. If you look after a building such as Loretto School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you live in an older home near St Philip's Parish Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Why it’s worth doing now in Eastfield
A leaking joint will not fix itself. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture, so it pays to deal with it early. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part and we will find out which.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Eastfield and across Edinburgh. Several sites can be quoted together.

The process
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job in most cases.

- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
How to prepare

- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
