About our glazing silicone in Chipping Ongar
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks normally come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. If you have conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and black or yellowed silicone on glass joints, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a smaller place like Chipping Ongar, some walls face open ground and catch the full force of the weather. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Chipping Ongar and across Essex.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and let the room air. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part and we’ll find out which.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
How we quote for glazing silicone
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether the work is at height
- Working hours on commercial sites
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
What we need to know
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Roughly how big the job is
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- A few pictures by email, if you can
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
How it works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most jobs and we leave things clean and tidy. In a smaller place like Chipping Ongar, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky
How to get a quote
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What else we do in Chipping Ongar
Windows and doors in Chipping Ongar
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Hill Hall (about 4.4 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Chipping Ongar as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Chipping Ongar Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you live in an older home near United Reformed Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Chipping Ongar
What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Chipping Ongar?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Chipping Ongar in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Chipping Ongar is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
How long does glazing silicone take?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we will say so.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
Glass balustrade bases
We reseal the joint where the glass meets the base channel. We do not install or replace glass.
What sealant work cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A broken pane or roof panel
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- A roof that has moved or dropped
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
