What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Badshot Lea needs a little journey planning: 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.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Preparing for the visit

Related advice
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Badshot Lea
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks generally come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. We work on shower screens, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints, and the jobs we see most are mouldy sealant around glass panels and new silicone smeared over old sealant.
Homes in small places like Badshot Lea often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How long should I leave it?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Badshot Lea?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes. The old bead comes off without marking the glass before cleaning and resealing.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
What else we do in Badshot Lea
Do you need glazing silicone in Badshot Lea?
New silicone over old silicone will not bond. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
Managing a site like Badshot Lea Village Infant School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
Before booking anyone
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What the cure time is
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether VAT is included
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Cracked or broken glass
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Conservatory frames
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Rooflights
- Shower screens
- Glass balustrade bases
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Wipe the screen down after showering
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when you clean. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. It may be sealant, or something else, and we’ll tell you which.
Windows and doors in Badshot Lea
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Farnham Castle (about 1.8 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Badshot Lea 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’s traditional sand mastic.
In the older streets around St George's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you let a flat or house near Aldershot station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
