How we handle glazing silicone in High Park Corner
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, finished with a neat, even bead. Typical jobs include mouldy sealant around glass panels and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight, across glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and shower screens.
Homes in small places like High Park Corner 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.
Landlords, agents and businesses in High Park Corner
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Rooflights
Rooflights get the full force of the weather. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
Why deal with it now?
Resealing can’t fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We’ll tell you that rather than seal it anyway, so you can call the right trade. Around High Park Corner, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Why us?
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

Frames and glazing around High Park Corner
High Park Corner is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. 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 look after a building such as Fingringhoe Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For landlords with property near Wivenhoe station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. For an older house near a landmark such as The Church of St Mary, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. The job normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere as small as High Park Corner, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Questions from High Park Corner
Does the coastal weather in High Park Corner affect outside sealant?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Do you work for landlords with property near Wivenhoe station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No, our work is the silicone. A glazier replaces glass and units.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Do you cover High Park Corner?
Yes, we do. Our applicators work in High Park Corner, and the service is the same as everywhere else.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.
