Glazing silicone in Church End, done properly
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 replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We work on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about water escaping where a screen meets the wall and failed joints on frameless glass.
Around Church End, 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.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. It may be sealant, or something else, and we’ll tell you which.
