Glazing silicone in Littlemore, done properly
We work across Littlemore on glazing joints for homes and businesses. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method, with a sealant chosen for the joint. If you’re dealing with shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and water tracking down the inner face of the glass, we can put it right.
In a smaller place like Littlemore, some walls face open ground and catch the full force of the weather. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Littlemore and across Oxfordshire.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
Your questions about glazing silicone in Littlemore
I let a flat near Radley station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Is Littlemore within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
That is not something we do. A misted unit has failed inside, and a glazier needs to replace it.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure silicone is the usual choice, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
We can, if the base joint is sealed. Photos help us see what’s there when you ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to every job we do.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
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, then guaranteed for a year.

What happens on the day
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In a smaller place like Littlemore, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

What glazing silicone looks like in Littlemore
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. Historic houses like Holywell Manor (about 2.7 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Littlemore 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’s traditional sand mastic.
If you let a flat or house near Radley station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary and St Nicholas, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What we’re called out for in Littlemore
Not every leak is a sealant problem: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. That is why we trace the leak first.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Emmanuel Christian School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Different surfaces, different methods
Glass balustrade bases
Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. A sound sealant joint keeps them tidy and dry.
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.

What else we do in Littlemore
Leave it or put it right?
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant won’t help. We’ll tell you that rather than seal it anyway, so you can call the right trade. Around Littlemore, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
