Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we’ll tell you which.
How we handle glazing silicone in Hurst
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks usually come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We work on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-frame joints and rooflights, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting into a conservatory at the joints and water tracking down the inner face of the glass.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Hurst is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like Hurst, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Getting ready for the visit

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Why deal with it now?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone won’t bond to old, and the leak usually returns. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. Around Hurst, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
