Glazing silicone in Owslebury, done properly
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, finished with a neat, even bead. We’re often asked to deal with failed sealant around rooflight glass and new silicone smeared over old sealant, on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-frame joints and conservatory frames.
In a village or hamlet like Owslebury, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Owslebury as everywhere else we work.

Frames and glazing around Owslebury
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Rented homes near Shawford station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Andrew, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. It may be sealant, or something else, and we’ll tell you which.

What happens if it’s left?
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. In a small place like Owslebury, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
Why book with us
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Fully insured

Owslebury questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Shawford station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Will you come out to Owslebury?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A glazing-grade silicone is best. Ours is a neutral-cure glazing silicone with anti-fungal products in bathrooms.
How long does the job take?
A typical job takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
A top-up rarely holds. Fresh silicone won’t bond to cured silicone so we take it all out and start clean.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
What sealant work cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A roof that has moved or dropped
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Conservatory frames
- Shower screens
When to call us in Owslebury
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Owslebury Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- Are they insured?
- What preparation is included
- What product goes in the joint
- How the colour is chosen
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Owslebury needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
