Glazing silicone in New Lanark
We work across New Lanark on glazing joints for homes and businesses. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method, with a sealant chosen for the joint. We work on glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and shower screens, and common reasons people get in touch are glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and a quick top-up bead that didn’t last.
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.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in New Lanark as everywhere else we work.

Windows and doors in New Lanark
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
If you let a flat or house near Lanark station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you live in an older home near New Lanark Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What affects the quote in New Lanark

- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any mould that needs treating
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved before giving you a price.

What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job from start to finish. Outside jobs in New Lanark need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear the area around the work

Different surfaces, different methods
Glass balustrade bases
Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We renew it without marking the glass.
Do you need glazing silicone in New Lanark?
Sealant laid over old sealant does not last. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out leaving a path for water.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
Schools such as Lanark Grammar School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Which colour the sealant will be
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
