About our glazing silicone in Elstree
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, finished with a neat, even bead. If you have new silicone smeared over old sealant and split or lifting silicone on glass, we can help, on conservatory frames, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases alike.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Elstree is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Elstree
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Before you book anyone
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What product goes in the joint
- Whether they’re fully insured
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.

Frames and glazing around Elstree
Historic houses like Headstone Manor (about 4.1 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Elstree has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Letting a property close to Elstree & Borehamwood station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you look after a building such as St Nicholas Elstree Church of England VA Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Why act early in Elstree
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Elstree, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What else we do in Elstree
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.
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. A failed bead lets water in.
What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Elstree, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
