About our glazing silicone in Ayot St Lawrence

Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. We are often asked to deal with glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and leaks from the base of a shower screen, across glass-to-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and shower screens.

Around Ayot St Lawrence, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Quotes for glazing silicone in Ayot St Lawrence

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

  • The size of the job
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

When to call us in Ayot St Lawrence

Silicone won’t bond to a dirty surface. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased the sealant may lift within a few years.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Water running down inside the glass
  • Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
  • Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
  • Mouldy sealant around glass panels

In the older streets around Old St Lawrence Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

How to choose a mastic man

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for most jobs, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Ayot St Lawrence, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. We inspect the work and test it where we can.

How to prepare

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Windows and doors in Ayot St Lawrence

Historic houses like Shaw's Corner (about 0.2 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Ayot St Lawrence has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

Letting a property close to Welwyn North station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Monk's Walk School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

What the job involves on each surface

Glass-to-frame joints

Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.

Glass balustrade bases

Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. A sound sealant joint keeps them tidy and dry.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together.

What sealant work cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
  • Condensation trapped between two panes
  • Frames that have decayed or split

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Shower screens
