- Water running down inside the glass
Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How we handle glazing silicone in Haywood
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass spoils the look and lets water in. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. Typical jobs include failed sealant around rooflight glass and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, across glass-to-glass joints, glass-to-frame joints and conservatory frames.
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.

What the job involves on each surface
Rooflights
Rooflights get the full force of the weather. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.
Conservatory frames
Frame joints face sun and rain all year. A fresh bead seals them again.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
Check the joints once a year. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with right away.
How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for most jobs from start to finish. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Glazing silicone in Haywood: local notes
