When to call us in Martins Heron
UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
If you live in an older home near St Paul, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Questions to ask before booking
- What product goes in the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
About our glazing silicone in Martins Heron
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. We work on rooflights, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about failed joints on frameless glass and failed sealant around rooflight glass.
Around Martins Heron, conservatories, garden rooms and patio doors are often part of the house. Their glazing joints and frame seals are as much a part of the job as the windows, and any older timber or sash windows need a sealant that suits them.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Martins Heron as everywhere else we work.

Martins Heron: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Martins Heron station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is it worth replacing old sealant in an older home in Martins Heron?
In most cases, yes, if it hasn’t been done for a while. Sealant is a maintenance item: how long it lasts depends on use, cleaning and exposure, and many homes in Martins Heron may already be on their second or third set.
Do you cover Martins Heron?
Yes. We cover Martins Heron and the rest of Bracknell Forest, as part of our work across South East England, London and Scotland. For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
New silicone will not bond to old silicone and water gets between the layers. The old bead always comes out first.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
What guarantee do I get?
All our work has a one-year guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
That is not something we do. A misted unit has failed inside and needs replacing by a glazier.
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
Do not use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
Surface by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
Glass-to-frame joints
Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. A failed bead lets water in.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a smaller place like Martins Heron, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Move anything stored near the joints

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

- A sagging or failing conservatory roof

Windows and doors in Martins Heron
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Bracknell, which Martins Heron is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. With many homes from the post-war decades, replacement windows and doors are common. The mastic around replacement frames ages too, and gaps at sills and frame heads are where water gets in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Harmans Water Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you let a flat or house near Martins Heron station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
