DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

About our glazing silicone in Gaston Green

Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We work on conservatory frames, glass-to-frame joints and rooflights, and the jobs we see most are failed sealant around rooflight glass and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints.

Around Gaston Green, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Surface by surface

Glass-to-glass joints

These joints are on show, so a straight, even finish matters.

Conservatory frames

Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We remove the failed sealant and renew it.

Gaston Green homes and the weather

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. Historic houses like Barrington Hall (about 3.2 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Gaston Green has older buildings as well as new. 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.

Homes close to Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you let a flat or house near Sawbridgeworth station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Gaston Green

I let a flat near Sawbridgeworth station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you cover smaller places like Gaston Green?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

How long does the job take?

It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. We’ll tell you when we quote.

How much does glazing silicone cost in Gaston Green?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.

Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?

Silicone does not stick to silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. We cut out the old sealant first.

Is a special sealant needed for glass?

We pick a glazing silicone to suit the materials. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.

Does someone need to be in?

It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Condensation trapped between two panes
  • A sagging or failing conservatory roof
  • Failed flashing around a conservatory

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we seal

  • Conservatory frames
  • Shower screens
  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Rooflights

Common problems we fix in Gaston Green

The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products don’t bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Water running down inside the glass
  • Failed sealant around rooflight glass
  • Cracked silicone between glass panels
  • Leaks from the base of a shower screen

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Spellbrook CofE Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

What to look for in a quote

  • What the cure time is
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • How long the guarantee is
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared

Our hiring checklist

How we quote for glazing silicone

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The number and length of the joints
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we need to know

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • The rough size of the job

Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, depending on how much there is to do. In a small place like Gaston Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. We clean and prepare the joint.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

Before we arrive

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
