- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls so it’s best dealt with right away.
Glazing silicone in Freefolk, done properly
We don’t replace glass and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that is often where the water gets in. If you have silicone pulling away from the glass and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, we can help, whatever the surface.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Freefolk is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What glazing silicone looks like in Freefolk
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Schools such as Testbourne Community School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Freefolk, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We remove the failed sealant and renew it.
How we quote for glazing silicone
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The size of the job
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Mould in or behind the old joints
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What we need to know
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The address or postcode of the job

Signs you need glazing silicone in Freefolk
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould gets into it and the edges begin to peel.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Water running down inside the glass
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
