Do you need glazing silicone in Pittendreich?
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
Look out for any of the following:
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
If you look after a building such as Elgin High School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

How we handle glazing silicone in Pittendreich
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. If you are dealing with drips on the inside of a conservatory window and split or lifting silicone on glass, we can put it right.
Many older Scottish homes still have timber windows set into stone walls. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
Check the joints once a year. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix, before water gets in.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.
What glazing silicone looks like in Pittendreich
Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
For landlords with property near Elgin station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right 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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Quotes for glazing silicone in Pittendreich
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The product the joint needs
- The number and length of the joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

What the job involves on each surface
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, depending on the size of the job. Outdoor work around Pittendreich depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
How to get a quote
