About our glazing silicone in Jockey End
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. We work on conservatory frames, shower screens and rooflights, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting into a conservatory at the joints and water escaping where a screen meets the wall.
Homes in small places like Jockey End often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.

Jockey End: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Berkhamsted station?

What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
In many cases, as long as sealant is the cause. We find where the water gets in first before any sealing.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure silicone is the usual choice, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
What glazing silicone looks like in Jockey End
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For landlords with property near Berkhamsted station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Schools such as Gaddesden Row JMI School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What happens on the day
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. 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 size of the job.

Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Why deal with it now?
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. In a small place like Jockey End, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
