About our glazing silicone in Breachwood Green
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks normally come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. Common call-outs are for leaks from the base of a shower screen and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, across glass balustrade bases, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints.
Homes in small places like Breachwood Green 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.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Breachwood Green as everywhere else we work.

What we can’t put right
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Conservatory frames
- Shower screens
- Rooflights
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-glass joints
Different surfaces, different methods
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Common problems we fix in Breachwood Green
Not every leak is a sealant problem: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. We find the cause before we seal anything.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
Managing a site like Breachwood Green Junior Mixed and Infant School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
What glazing silicone looks like in Breachwood Green
Historic houses like Shaw's Corner (about 4.4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Breachwood Green 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. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Letting a property close to Luton Airport Parkway station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
