About our glazing silicone in Braughing
Sealant on glazing does not last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. Common call-outs are for glass-to-glass joints that have split and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away, on glass-to-glass joints, conservatory frames and shower screens.
Around Braughing, 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Braughing, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
Common problems we fix in Braughing
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature, and they don’t move by the same amount. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
If you look after a building such as Jenyns First School and Nursery, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Windows and doors in Braughing
Historic houses like Much Hadham Palace (about 4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Braughing has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
In the older streets around Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

When it is not the sealant
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- Cracked or broken glass
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass balustrade bases
- Conservatory frames

What the job involves on each surface
Glass balustrade bases
The base of a glass balustrade is normally sealed. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We reseal without scratching the glass.
How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
Why it’s worth doing now in Braughing
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames usually just need resealing, and we’ll tell you if that’s not the case. Around Braughing, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
