Munlochy questions
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Munlochy?
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 usually the first to need attention.
Will you come out to Munlochy?
Yes. Munlochy is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No, our work is the silicone. Glass and sealed units need a glazier.
About our glazing silicone in Munlochy
Across Munlochy, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job. Typical jobs include black or yellowed silicone on glass joints and water tracking down the inner face of the glass, on glass balustrade bases, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill, so the mastic there works hard.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

How the job changes by surface
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part and we will find out which.
How we quote for glazing silicone
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- The amount of work
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The type of sealant required
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.
When to call us in Munlochy
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out, and water gets between the layers.
Look out for any of the following:
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
Around Munlochy, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

The process
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing and we leave things clean and tidy. For a place like Munlochy, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
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, then guaranteed for a year.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Landlord and commercial work in Munlochy
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Windows and doors in Munlochy
Munlochy 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. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
In the older streets around Knockbain Munlochy Parish Church and Boundary Wall, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
