Glazing silicone in Marsh Baldon, done properly
Sealant on glazing doesn’t last for ever. Weather and movement take their toll, and once it cracks, water follows. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. If you are dealing with a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away, we can put it right, on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and glass balustrade bases alike.
Homes in small places like Marsh Baldon often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What else we do in Marsh Baldon
What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Conservatory frames
Frame joints face sun and rain all year. A fresh bead seals them again.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Marsh Baldon
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Why act early in Marsh Baldon
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but new silicone won’t bond to old and water soon finds its way back. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. In a small place like Marsh Baldon, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Is balustrade sealant something you do?

Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we’re fully insured.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
New silicone will not bond to old silicone and water gets between the layers. The old bead always comes out first.
How long should I leave it?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Marsh Baldon homes and the weather
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. With historic houses such as Garsington Manor (about 2.2 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Marsh Baldon 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.
If you let a flat or house near Radley station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Marsh Baldon Church of England Controlled School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
