- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly so water does not back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.
Glazing silicone in Hare Green, done properly
Sealant on glazing doesn’t last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down and cracked joints let water in. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. We are often asked to deal with water escaping where a screen meets the wall and failed sealant around rooflight glass, on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints.
Homes in small places like Hare Green 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.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Quotes for glazing silicone in Hare Green
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- When we can work, for business premises
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number of rooms or windows
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Every job is quoted individually. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Glass that needs replacing
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What glazing silicone looks like in Hare Green
Historic houses like Castle House (about 5 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Hare Green has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
If you live in an older home near Church of St George, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Rented homes near Great Bentley station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Hare Green: your questions answered
Is Hare Green in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Hare Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Great Bentley station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
We can. The old bead comes off without marking the glass, and the joints are cleaned and resealed.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
How long should I leave it?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
We pick a glazing silicone to suit the materials. Neutral-cure silicone is the usual choice, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
When to call us in Hare Green
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
Look out for these signs:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
Schools such as St George's Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hare Green
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but silicone doesn’t stick to silicone and water soon finds its way back. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hare Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
