DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
About our glazing silicone in Spittal of Glenshee
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass before the new bead goes in. If you have glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and new silicone smeared over old sealant, we can help, on shower screens, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints alike.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. Those suit a traditional sand mastic or a neutral-cure sealant, not an acetoxy silicone that can attack some stone.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Around Spittal of Glenshee, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
For anyone letting property in or around Spittal of Glenshee, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.
Conservatory frames
Exposed frame joints wear with the weather. A fresh bead seals them again.
Windows and doors in Spittal of Glenshee
Sash and case windows are common in older Scottish homes, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.

What we’re called out for in Spittal of Glenshee
Some conservatory leaks aren’t sealant at all: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. We find the cause before we seal anything.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
For an older house near a landmark such as Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
