How we handle glazing silicone in Middle Assendon
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks normally come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. We work on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-frame joints and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Middle Assendon is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. A full reseal sorts it.
Rooflights
Rooflights get the full force of the weather. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.
Do you need glazing silicone in Middle Assendon?
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Water running down inside the glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
If you let a flat or house near Henley-On-Thames station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Questions to ask before you book

How it works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs.

- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.

How to prepare

Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?

Do you offer different sealant colours?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The product needed can limit the range.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
Many leaks we see come from exactly that. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.
What glazing silicone looks like in Middle Assendon
Historic houses like Greys Court (about 1.8 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Middle Assendon 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 is traditional sand mastic. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St James, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
