How we handle glazing silicone in Jedburgh
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. We work on glass balustrade bases, shower screens and conservatory frames, and common reasons people get in touch are failed joints on frameless glass and split or lifting silicone on glass.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Jedburgh is planned around the weather. Let us know about access to every frame, including any upstairs.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and let the room air. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.

Jedburgh homes and the weather
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
If you look after a building such as Jedburgh Grammar School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

The visit itself generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, depending on the size of the job. Outside jobs in Jedburgh 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 is not affected.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

Signs you need glazing silicone in Jedburgh
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
If you live in an older home near Boston Church and Offices, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.
Before booking anyone
- What insurance they hold
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Who turns up on the day
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Leave it or put it right?
Replacing windows or a shower screen isn’t needed for a failed joint. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
