How we handle glazing silicone in Greenigoe
Across Greenigoe, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and shower screens, and people most often call us about failed joints on frameless glass and drips on the inside of a conservatory window.
Mastic can only go onto a dry joint, so outside work in Greenigoe depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and let the room air. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
Common problems we fix in Greenigoe
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products do not bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
Whether the job is in Greenigoe itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Questions to ask before you book
- How much experience the applicator has
- What the cure time is
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
Glazing silicone in Greenigoe: local notes
Greenigoe is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Work on the islands has to be planned around ferry crossings and the weather, so the more notice, the better.
Around Greenigoe, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Greenigoe is about 3 miles south-west of Kirkwall, in the Orkney Islands. We provide glazing silicone to homes and businesses in Greenigoe, as part of our work across the Orkney Islands. Our the Orkney Islands coverage runs to 51 places, Greenigoe among them.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Glass that needs replacing
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof

Landlord and commercial work in Greenigoe
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Outside jobs in Greenigoe need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
How to get a quote

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
Glass-to-frame joints
The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We choose a product that suits both.
