About our glazing silicone in High Wych
Across High Wych, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method. If you are dealing with silicone pulling away from the glass and failed joints on frameless glass, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like High Wych, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How the job changes by surface
Glass balustrade bases
Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.
Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We check which it is.
What glazing silicone looks like in High Wych
Historic houses like Much Hadham Palace (about 3.9 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around High Wych has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Letting a property close to Harlow Mill station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. If you live in an older home near Parish Church of St James the Great, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What we are called out for in High Wych
UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
If you look after a building such as High Wych Church of England Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
What your quote should include
- How the colour is chosen
- How long the guarantee is
- How much experience the applicator has
- Is VAT in the price?
What happens if it’s left?
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant will not help. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like High Wych, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.
