DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Finkley
Across Finkley, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method. Typical jobs include leaks from the base of a shower screen and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight, across glass-to-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints.
Homes in small places like Finkley often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Use gentle products around the joints
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Finkley
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
Homes close to Christ Church include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
What your quote should include

- What preparation is included
- Who turns up on the day
When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Condensation trapped between two panes

What happens if it’s left?
A leaking joint won’t fix itself. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture, so it pays to deal with it early. Around Finkley, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What you get with us
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes, we do these often. We use anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

The process
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job in most cases. In a small place like Finkley, access is generally 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.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

What glazing silicone looks like in Finkley
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Managing a site like Smannell and Enham Church of England (Aided) Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Andover station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
