How we handle glazing silicone in Aldbury
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. Common call-outs are for shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, on rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Aldbury is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Do you need glazing silicone in Aldbury?
Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Water running down inside the glass
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Aldbury Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Why act early in Aldbury
Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We will tell you that rather than seal it anyway and point you to a glazier or roofer. Older cottages and farmhouses around Aldbury can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What you get with us
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
If you manage several properties in or around Aldbury, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.
The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Aldbury, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Frames and glazing around Aldbury
Historic houses like Cholesbury Manor House (about 3.9 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Aldbury has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Baptist, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. If you let a flat or house near Tring station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

What the job involves on each surface
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
