The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere as small as Lemsford, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

How we handle glazing silicone in Lemsford
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, 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. If you’re dealing with failed joints on frameless glass and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray, we can help, on glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints alike.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Lemsford is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lemsford as everywhere else we work.

Glazing silicone in Lemsford: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Digswell House (about 1.9 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Lemsford as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
Homes close to Church of St John the Evangelist include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. For landlords with property near Welwyn Garden City station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Applecroft School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Why deal with it now?
Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. A small leak can reach the floor below before you notice. Around Lemsford, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any mould that needs treating
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Which sealant suits the joint
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Glass balustrade bases
Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.
