About our glazing silicone in Kilchoan
We do not replace glass, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. We work on glass-to-frame joints, glass-to-glass joints and shower screens, and the jobs we see most are leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and failed joints on frameless glass.
In and around a place like Kilchoan, homes range from older stone-built cottages to newer houses. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Kilchoan as everywhere else we work.

Leave it or put it right?
Replacing windows or a shower screen is not needed for a failed joint. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes, and we’ll tell you if that is not the case. In a place like Kilchoan, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

What we do, step by step
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a place like Kilchoan, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Getting ready for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. A full reseal sorts it.
Glass-to-frame joints
The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
Kilchoan homes and the weather
Kilchoan is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic.
For an older house near a landmark such as Ardnamurchan Parish Church of Scotland, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
Kilchoan is in Highland. Our applicators cover glazing silicone for householders, landlords and businesses in Kilchoan and the surrounding area, as part of our work across Highland. Kilchoan is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland where we work.

FAQs for Kilchoan
Is Kilchoan within the area you cover?
Yes. Kilchoan is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Kilchoan?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
Glass replacement is not our trade. We reseal the joints around it and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.
Is the work guaranteed?
You get our one-year guarantee to every job we do.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Many leaks we see come from exactly that. We remove the old silicone, clean the joint and reseal.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A glazing-grade silicone is best. Ours is a neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Common problems we fix in Kilchoan
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
In and around Kilchoan, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
