About our glazing silicone in Ashurst
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. We work on conservatory frames, shower screens and glass balustrade bases, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked silicone between glass panels and mouldy sealant around glass panels.
Somewhere as small as Ashurst, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What glazing silicone looks like in Ashurst
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Groombridge Place (about 1.6 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Ashurst as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Homes close to Church of St Martin of Tours include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether the work is at height
- The amount of work
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- How we’d reach the joints

- Whether it has been sealed before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Different surfaces, different methods
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
Glass-to-frame joints
We cut the old silicone from the glass without scratching it and reseal with glazing silicone.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.

How long does glazing silicone take?
Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
What happens if it’s left?
Replacing windows or a shower screen isn’t needed for a failed joint. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Ashurst, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
