Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Innerwick
We work across Innerwick on glazing joints for homes and businesses. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job. If you are dealing with failed joints on frameless glass and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray, we can help.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

FAQs for Innerwick
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Innerwick any different?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Will you come out to Innerwick?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes. We remove the old sealant and reseal the wall and tray joints.
How long does glazing silicone take?
A typical job takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Act on drips or damp patches early
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and let the room air. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.
How we quote for glazing silicone
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How many areas need sealing
- The number and length of the joints
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height

Innerwick homes and the weather
Innerwick is close to 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. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
Rented homes near Dunbar station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
