Glazing silicone in Crouch, done properly
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. We work on glass-to-glass joints, shower screens and glass-to-frame joints, and people most often call us about conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and failed sealant around rooflight glass.
Somewhere as small as Crouch, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Do you need glazing silicone in Crouch?
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
Letting a property close to Selling station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Surface by surface
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
Conservatory frames
Frame joints face sun and rain all year. Renewed sealant keeps water out.
The process
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. In a small place like Crouch, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Crouch homes and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens (about 4.2 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Crouch as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Schools such as Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Homes close to Church of St Peter and St Paul include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Why it’s worth doing now in Crouch
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. If the leak is a failed sealant joint renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Crouch, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.
