Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Longmorn
Not every silicone suits glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We work on shower screens, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about drips on the inside of a conservatory window and silicone pulling away from the glass.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Exposed frames and sills take the full force of wind-driven rain, so the mastic there works hard.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Frames and glazing around Longmorn
Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Elgin High School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
Keep conservatory gutters clear so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.

What we are called out for in Longmorn
Some conservatory leaks aren’t sealant at all: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. We find the cause before we seal anything.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
For landlords with property near Elgin station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What affects the quote in Longmorn
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether the work is at height
- When we can work, for business premises
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The rough size of the job
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We renew it without marking the glass.
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
