Glazing & conservatory sealant in Burghfield Common, West Berkshire
Professional glazing silicone in and around Burghfield Common, with old sealant always removed completely.
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.
How we handle glazing silicone in Burghfield Common
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. If you have drips on the inside of a conservatory window and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Houses in smaller places like Burghfield Common can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Burghfield Common and across West Berkshire.

Glazing silicone in Burghfield Common: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Stratfield Saye House (about 4.4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Burghfield Common has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Garland Junior School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. In the older streets around Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. If you let a flat or house near Mortimer station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

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 chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Frames that have decayed or split
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Burghfield Common: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Mortimer station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Burghfield Common?
Yes, Burghfield Common is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Where do you work from?
We are a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we’ll say so.
Why deal with it now?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Around Burghfield Common, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
