About our glazing silicone in Holwell
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass spoils the look and lets water in. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass before the new bead goes in. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and conservatory frames, and common reasons people get in touch are mouldy sealant around glass panels and a quick top-up bead that didn’t last.
In a village or hamlet like Holwell, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Rooflights
We reseal the glazing joints on rooflights. Leaks from the roof itself need a roofer.
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.

What glazing silicone looks like in Holwell
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.
Homes close to Church of St Peter (C of E) at Corner with Holwell Road include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. If you look after a building such as The Priory School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Why deal with it now?
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Holwell, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
What you get with us
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Colour agreed with you before we start
- A choice of colours where the product allows

What we are called out for in Holwell
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products don’t bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Look out for these signs:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
Letting a property close to Hitchin station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
Before you book anyone
- How hidden problems are handled
- What guarantee comes with the work
- What the cure time is
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Check the joints once a year. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix, before water gets in.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
