Glazing Silicone in Leaden Roding
Our applicators work in Leaden Roding on glazing silicone for conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
How we handle glazing silicone in Leaden Roding
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. We work on conservatory frames, glass-to-frame joints and glass-to-glass joints, and the jobs we see most are water escaping where a screen meets the wall and split or lifting silicone on glass.
Homes in small places like Leaden Roding 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
You see these joints clearly, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.

What glazing silicone looks like in Leaden Roding
Historic houses like Barrington Hall (about 3.8 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Leaden Roding has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Schools such as Rodings Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Michael and All Angels, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
