Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Timsgarry
Sealant on glazing does not last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down and cracked joints let water in. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. We work on glass balustrade bases, rooflights and shower screens, and the jobs we see most are silicone pulling away from the glass and failed sealant around rooflight glass.
Older stone-built homes in Scotland often have sash and case or timber windows set in stone. The sealant has to suit the stone, which rules out acetoxy silicones that can mark or attack it.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What glazing silicone looks like in Timsgarry
Timsgarry is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so give us as much notice as you can.
If you live in an older home near Uig Parish Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Do you need glazing silicone in Timsgarry?
Sealant laid over old sealant doesn’t last. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.
The most common problems we see are:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
In and around Timsgarry, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Which colour the sealant will be
Different surfaces, different methods
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so a straight, even finish matters.
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that is often finished with sealant. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Act on drips or damp patches early
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we’ll tell you which.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Outside jobs in Timsgarry need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Timsgarry: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Timsgarry?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Timsgarry?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
How long does the job take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours for most jobs. We will tell you when we quote.
Do you replace glass?
That’s not something we do. A misted unit has failed inside, and a glazier needs to replace it.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
Often, if the leak is at a sealant joint. We find where the water gets in first, so you know what you are paying for.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
We can, if the base joint is sealed. Send us pictures and we’ll take a look.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we are fully insured.
For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Timsgarry and across Na h-Eileanan Siar. Several sites can be quoted together.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Leave it or put it right?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but silicone does not stick to silicone and water soon finds its way back. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. Around Timsgarry, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first.
