Harpenden Glazing Silicone

Should I try it myself first?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Glazing silicone in Harpenden: local notes

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Childwickbury Manor (about 2.6 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Harpenden as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

For an older house near a landmark such as St Nicholas Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Managing a site like Harpenden Academy? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
