Glazing silicone in Gordon
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away spoils the look and lets water in. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame and reseal the joint. Common call-outs are for drips on the inside of a conservatory window and failed joints on frameless glass, on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and conservatory frames.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Why it’s worth doing now in Gordon
A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. In a place like Gordon, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What else we do in Gordon
What glazing silicone looks like in Gordon
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Around Gordon, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- The product the joint needs
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether the work is at height
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels.
Do you need glazing silicone in Gordon?
UV light ages silicone and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
The most common problems we see are:
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
In the older streets around East Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
Rooflights
Water around a rooflight is not always the sealant. We find the cause first.
What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Outdoor work around Gordon depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Do not use blades or scrapers near the bead when you clean. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.
