Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Leavenheath
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. If you’re dealing with water getting into a conservatory at the joints and mouldy sealant around glass panels, we can help.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Leavenheath is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Why not top up the existing silicone?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.

How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.

When to call us in Leavenheath
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Some products don’t bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
Homes close to St Matthew's Church include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
What your quote should include
- What product goes in the joint
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What insurance they hold
What the job involves on each surface
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.
Glass balustrade bases
The base joint is cut out and resealed. We do not install or replace glass.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Act on drips or damp patches early
Keep conservatory gutters clear so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
