Glazing silicone in Breach Barns
Glass replacement is not something we do, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass, which is where many leaks start. We work on glass-to-glass joints, shower screens and glass balustrade bases, and people most often call us about conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and failed sealant around rooflight glass.
In a village or hamlet like Breach Barns, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What affects the quote in Breach Barns
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any mould that needs treating
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it has been sealed before
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.
What sealant work can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- A broken pane or roof panel
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- A roof that has moved or dropped
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Windows and doors in Breach Barns
London and the South East are among the drier parts 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 Upshire Primary Foundation School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. In the older streets around Church of St Thomas, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Rented homes near Cheshunt station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Why deal with it now?
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. In a small place like Breach Barns, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before we start.

For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, and the area is left clean.
