Glazing silicone in Bishop's Green
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. Typical jobs include leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and new silicone smeared over old sealant, across shower screens, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Bishop's Green is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we are called out for in Bishop's Green
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould grows into the bead and the edges begin to peel.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
Rented homes near Newbury Racecourse station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
What your quote should include
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether they’re fully insured
- The length of the guarantee
- What happens if the job turns out different
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.
Glazing silicone in Bishop's Green: local notes
Historic houses like Shaw House (about 3.6 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Bishop's Green 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’s traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Managing a site like Cheam School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Surface by surface
Conservatory frames
Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
Glass balustrade bases
The base of a glass balustrade is normally sealed. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Any mould that needs treating

Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- How we’d reach the joints

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that’s easy.
The process
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. The work usually takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Bishop's Green needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip 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.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
