Glazing silicone in Ayot Green

When it isn’t the sealant

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • A roof that has moved or dropped
  • A sealed unit that has misted inside
  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Where we work in Ayot Green

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Ayot Green

Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. If you’re dealing with split or lifting silicone on glass and rooflight joints letting water in, we can put it right.

Homes in small places like Ayot Green often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the new joints

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
  • Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
  • Look over the glazing joints once a year

Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.

Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.

Frames and glazing around Ayot Green

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Digswell House (about 1.1 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Ayot Green has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

Schools such as Monk's Walk School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Welwyn Garden City station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. In the older streets around Church of St Peter, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Can I do it myself?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

How the job changes by surface

Rooflights

A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.

Conservatory frames

Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.

What happens on the day

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, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Ayot Green, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, we check where the water gets in.
  2. We remove the old sealant carefully.
  3. The joint is cleaned and degreased.
  4. A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ayot Green

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Leave it or put it right?

A leaking joint won’t fix itself. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. In a small place like Ayot Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
