North Moreton Glazing Silicone
Glazing silicone for conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens for homes and businesses in North Moreton and across Oxfordshire. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
When to call us in North Moreton
New silicone over old silicone will not bond. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.

Glazing silicone in North Moreton, done properly
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that’s suited to glass and the frame, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We’re often asked to deal with a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and cracked silicone between glass panels, on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-frame joints and rooflights.
Around North Moreton, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

The process
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like North Moreton needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- 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.

Advice
North Moreton homes and the weather
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Brightwell Manor (about 1.2 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around North Moreton has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Rented homes near Didcot Parkway station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as South Moreton Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Why act early in North Moreton
Replacing windows or a shower screen is not needed for a failed joint. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. Around North Moreton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.

We don’t publish a price list. What we look at:
