Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.
How long should I leave it?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
When it isn’t the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
Common problems we fix in Layer-de-la-Haye
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Some products do not bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
If you look after a building such as Alderman Blaxill School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass balustrade bases
We reseal the joint where the glass meets the base channel. We do not install or replace glass.
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We remove the failed sealant and renew it.
How we quote for glazing silicone
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The size of the job
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The rough size of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
There’s no standard price list. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What glazing silicone looks like in Layer-de-la-Haye
With historic houses such as Layer Marney Tower (about 3.1 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Layer-de-la-Haye as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you let a flat or house near Colchester Town station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Homes close to Church of St John the Baptist include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
