How we handle glazing silicone in Kilmaluag
Glass replacement is not something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that’s often where the water gets in. We work on glass balustrade bases, rooflights and glass-to-frame joints, and common reasons people get in touch are a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away.
In and around a place like Kilmaluag, homes range from older stone-built cottages to newer houses. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Windows and doors in Kilmaluag
Kilmaluag is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, which means glazing joints and frame seals has to cope with a lot of rain.
Around Kilmaluag, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Glass-to-glass joints
You see these joints clearly, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
When to call us in Kilmaluag
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
For jobs in and around Kilmaluag, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What insurance they hold
What happens on the day
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work usually takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
