Glazing silicone in Fairstead, done properly
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you are dealing with failed sealant around rooflight glass and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes in small places like Fairstead often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Windows and doors in Fairstead
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Managing a site like Terling Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

What else we do in Fairstead
Fairstead: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Fairstead?
Yes. Fairstead is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Fairstead in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Fairstead is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to every job we do.
What does glazing silicone cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing and where.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
How long does glazing silicone take?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Topping up is a common cause of leaks. We remove the old silicone, clean the joint and reseal.
How the job changes by surface
Rooflights
Water around a rooflight isn’t always the sealant. We find the cause first.
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
What happens if it’s left?
Replacing windows or a shower screen is not needed for a failed joint. 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 Fairstead, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

What we’re called out for in Fairstead
Not every leak is a sealant problem: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. We find the cause before we seal anything.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
For landlords with property near White Notley station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere like Fairstead needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What sealant work can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- Cracked or broken glass
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
