Stopping and restarting creates visible irregularities. Immediately after application, it's smoothed with a silicone spatula or a finger dipped in soapy water to create the characteristic uniform concave finish. Masking tape is removed before the silicone begins to cure, within the first 5 minutes. First, the old silicone must be completely removed. New silicone cannot be applied over the old; it won't adhere and will peel off within weeks. Removal is done with a special cutter, scraper, and, in difficult cases, with a specific chemical softener that dissolves the old silicone without damaging the tile.

In winter, when humidity drops and the dry westerly wind blows, the wood contracts. The door closes well, but there's visible looseness between the door and the frame, allowing air and noise to pass through. This is the natural cycle of wood, and it can only be avoided by two things: either replacing it with an MDF or multi-laminate door that doesn't warp, or learning to live with it and occasionally adjusting the hinges. This is a very specific pattern in the area. Solid wood interior doors, especially those in blocks from the 80s-90s, swell and contract with seasonal humidity changes. In summer, when humidity and temperature are high, the wood absorbs moisture from the air and expands. The door stops closing properly, rubbing against the top or side of the frame, and forcing it only damages the hinge. We identify the real cause (humidity, settling, worn hardware) before acting.

For more modern windows with tilt-and-turn profiles and thermal breaks, the hardware is of better quality but also requires maintenance. Lubricating hinges and adjusting locking points every 2-3 years significantly extends their lifespan and prevents drafts in winter or makes them easier to open. Minimum 24 hours for full curing. Quality neutral silicone is touch-dry in 30 minutes, but internal curing takes 24 hours to be waterproof.
