Need glazing silicone in Oxfordshire?

Our glazing silicone service in Oxfordshire

We work across Oxfordshire on glazing joints for homes and businesses. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method. Typical jobs include mouldy sealant around glass panels and leaks from the base of a shower screen, across glass-to-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints.

At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself generally takes a few hours for most jobs, depending on the size of the job.

  1. We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. The joint is cleaned and degreased.
  4. We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

How we quote

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why book with us

Windows and doors across Oxfordshire

Our glazing silicone work across Oxfordshire covers homes, flats and businesses, from Oxford, Banbury and Didcot to the quieter places in between. Every outside joint is sealed dry and clean, so the forecast plays its part.

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. For any job in Oxfordshire, joints are cleaned back properly before anything new goes in.

Oxford: Managing a site like East Oxford Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you live in an older home near St Clement's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.

DIY versus a professional finish

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

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.

What affects the quote in Oxfordshire

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Access and height
  • The size of the job

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Asking for a quote

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

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • Where the property is
  • If someone has resealed it before

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.

Different surfaces, different methods

Glass-to-frame joints

Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We choose a product that suits both.

Glass-to-glass joints

Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.

When something else is needed

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
  • A frame that needs repairing or replacing
  • A sagging or failing conservatory roof

Oxfordshire: your questions answered

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Can a conservatory leak be sealed?

It depends on the cause. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.

Can tenants book the work?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will it make a mess?

We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.

What do you put in the joint?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.

Do you work in Oxfordshire?

Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, and that includes Oxfordshire.
