Little Brechin Glazing Silicone
Glazing silicone across Little Brechin and nearby, with old sealant always removed completely and a one-year guarantee.
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
Do not use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
How we handle glazing silicone in Little Brechin
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We find the joint that is letting water in and renew it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. If you have glass-to-glass joints that have split and split or lifting silicone on glass, we can help, on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and shower screens alike.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Little Brechin is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What glazing silicone looks like in Little Brechin
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. 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.
Managing a site like Brechin High School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Around Little Brechin, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why act early in Little Brechin
Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Questions from Little Brechin
Is Little Brechin within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Little Brechin?
All our work, in Little Brechin and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Normally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we will agree it with you first.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
That depends where the water is getting in. Sealant joints we can renew, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

Shower screens

Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We find the cause first.
