About glazing silicone in Hertfordshire

A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We work on shower screens, glass-to-frame joints and glass-to-glass joints, and the jobs we see most are shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame.

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job.

First, we check where the water gets in.
The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

What you will pay

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Glazing silicone across Hertfordshire: local notes

In Hertfordshire, glazing silicone work takes in houses, flats, conservatories and commercial glazing, from Watford, Hemel Hempstead and Stevenage to the quieter places in between. Outside sealant needs a dry, clean joint, so the work is planned around the weather.

London and the South East have homes from every era, from period terraces to post-war new towns and new estates. The right sealant depends on the age and materials of the building.

Watford: If you live in an older home near Church of St Andrew, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Letting a property close to Watford Junction station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Surface by surface

Glass balustrade bases

Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.

Shower screens

Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.

How we quote for glazing silicone

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

Access and height
The number of rooms or windows
The old material and how stubborn it is
Mould in or behind the old joints

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Helping us quote

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:

Whether it has been sealed before
The problem you’ve noticed
How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
The address or postcode of the job

Need a quote? Please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the job. We will explain what we’d do and send you a clear quote before we start.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

What sealant work can’t fix

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

Cracked or broken glass
Rotten or badly damaged frames
A sagging or failing conservatory roof

Leave it or put it right?

Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone.

FAQs for Hertfordshire

Is balustrade sealant something you do?

Yes. The sealant joint at the base can be renewed. Fitting glass is a separate trade.

Why not top up the existing silicone?

New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. We cut out the old sealant first.

Will it make a mess?

No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

What guarantee do I get?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.

Do you cover Hertfordshire?

Yes. We cover Hertfordshire, as part of our work across South East England, London and Scotland. For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
