Glazing silicone in Ravenscraig
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. If you have failed joints on frameless glass and stained, discoloured glazing silicone, we can put it right.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Ravenscraig is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Can I do it myself?
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.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. 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. Outdoor work around Ravenscraig depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Glass that needs replacing
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing

Do you need glazing silicone in Ravenscraig?
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
Look out for any of the following:
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
Letting a property close to Shieldmuir station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What product goes in the joint
- Who turns up on the day
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.

Glazing silicone in Ravenscraig: local notes
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes 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.
Cambusnethan House, about 2.7 miles south, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Ravenscraig, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Our Lady's High School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
