How we handle glazing silicone in Lochluichart
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes 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 glass-to-glass joints that have split.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

How the job changes by surface
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that’s often finished with sealant. Failed sealant there lets water collect.
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.
Why act early in Lochluichart
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before you notice. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Do you need glazing silicone in Lochluichart?
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Some products do not bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
In the older streets around Lochluichart Parish Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Frames and glazing around Lochluichart
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes 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.
For landlords with property near Lochluichart station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.
