How we handle glazing silicone in Newhills
We do not replace glass and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that’s often where the water gets in. If you have sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

How the job changes by surface
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. We reseal them with a sealant suited to the frame.
What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Outside jobs in Newhills 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.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Quotes for glazing silicone in Newhills
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of sealant required
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, 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
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Where the property is
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- How we’d reach the joints
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 will talk you through the work.
For landlords and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
What happens if it’s left?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- We are fully insured
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

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.

Newhills homes and the weather
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. With historic houses such as Friendville (about 4.2 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Newhills as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Managing a site like Bucksburn Academy? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Letting a property close to Dyce station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Around Newhills
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to Newhills Parish Church. Newhills’s nearest station is Dyce station, about 2 miles north. A little further out are Mar's Castle (4.6 miles south-east) and Gordon Highlanders Museum (3.7 miles south-east). The countryside around Newhills includes Brimmond Hill and Rubislaw Quarry.
Common problems we fix in Newhills
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature, and they don’t move by the same amount. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
For an older house near a landmark such as Old Parish Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
