- New silicone smeared over old sealant
How we handle glazing silicone in Farnham Common
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass spoils the look and lets water in. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass before the new bead goes in. We work on glass balustrade bases, rooflights and shower screens, and people most often call us about glass-to-glass joints that have split and a quick top-up bead that didn’t last.
Homes in small places like Farnham Common 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Windows and doors in Farnham Common
With historic houses such as Cliveden (about 3.3 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Farnham Common as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Managing a site like Farnham Common Junior School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. In the older streets around St John the Evangelist, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. Around Farnham Common, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.
Common problems we fix in Farnham Common
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Some products do not bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
Rented homes near Burnham station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
What to look for in a quote

Different surfaces, different methods
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.
Glass-to-frame joints
We cut the old silicone from the glass without scratching it before new glazing silicone goes in.
