About our glazing silicone in Goring
Across Goring, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method, with a sealant chosen for the joint. Common call-outs are for water getting into a conservatory at the joints and stained, discoloured glazing silicone, across glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints.
In a smaller place like Goring, some walls face open ground and catch the full force of the weather, so exposed windows and doors face the weather head on. That’s hard on the mastic around frames and sills.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- A broken pane or roof panel
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Shower screens
- Glass balustrade bases
- Conservatory frames
- Rooflights

Questions from Goring
Will you come out to Goring?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Goring & Streatley station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
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.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes, where the base is finished with sealant. Send us pictures and we will take a look when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes, we do these often. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.
How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a job in Goring, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Goring
Heat and cold make glass and frames move, and they do not move by the same amount. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Thomas of Canterbury, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How much experience the applicator has
Why it’s worth doing now in Goring
A leaking joint will not fix itself. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. Around Goring, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
Why Goring customers choose us
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- A choice of colours where the product allows

What glazing silicone looks like in Goring
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Basildon Park (about 1.8 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Goring as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Rented homes near Goring & Streatley station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Managing a site like Goring Church of England Aided Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
