How we handle glazing silicone in Bentley
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Resealing puts that right. If you’re dealing with black or yellowed silicone on glass joints and drips on the inside of a conservatory window, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Bentley, 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.

The process
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Bentley 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.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Bentley
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant will not help. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Bentley, 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, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we’ll say so.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.

When to call us in Bentley
Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
Letting a property close to Brentwood station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Comparing quotes
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What the cure time is
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
Glazing silicone in Bentley: local notes
Historic houses like Hare Hall (about 4.8 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Bentley has older buildings as well as new. 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. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you look after a building such as Becket Keys Church of England School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Paul, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.
