DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Glazing silicone in Oakley
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. If you have water getting into a conservatory at the joints and water running down inside the glass, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes around Oakley range from older properties to newer houses, and their windows range just as widely. Each frame material needs the right sealant against the right wall.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Oakley and across Oxfordshire.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a smaller place like Oakley, 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.
- 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.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
Windows and doors in Oakley
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Adwell House (about 3.2 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Oakley as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Mill Lane Community Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Andrew, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. If you let a flat or house near Princes Risborough station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Oakley is about 4 miles south-east of Thame, in Oxfordshire. Jobs in Oakley get the same care as everywhere else we work: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. Oakley is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire we cover. There’s also a page for Oxford, about 14 miles away.

A little further out are Thame Community Hospital (3.8 miles north-west). Open spaces near Oakley include Bald Hill and Oakley Hill nature reserve.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix, before water gets in.
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 sealant work cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Condensation trapped between two panes
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- Glass that needs replacing
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Oakley?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.

A typical job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.
How long before the joint can be used?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we’ll say so.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
Glass needs a sealant made for glazing. Ours is a neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
Surface by surface
Glass balustrade bases
We reseal the joint where the glass meets the base channel. Glass fitting is a separate trade.
Glass-to-frame joints
The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
Why deal with it now?
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. Homes in smaller places like Oakley can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
