How we handle glazing silicone in Pilgrims Hatch
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame and reseal the joint. We work on glass-to-glass joints, shower screens and glass balustrade bases, and the jobs we see most are conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and cracked silicone between glass panels.
Houses in smaller places like Pilgrims Hatch can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, so exposed windows and doors face the weather head on. That’s hard on the mastic around frames and sills.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

How the visit works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing in most cases. A visit to Pilgrims Hatch is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Common problems we fix in Pilgrims Hatch
Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
For an older house near a landmark such as Saint George's church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
What your quote should include
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee
Pilgrims Hatch homes and the weather
Historic houses like Ingatestone Hall (about 4.6 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Pilgrims Hatch 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’s traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Managing a site like Larchwood Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Brentwood station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Questions from Pilgrims Hatch
Can you do glazing silicone in Pilgrims Hatch?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Pilgrims Hatch is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords with property near Brentwood station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you replace glass?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing by a glazier.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise so the silicone can set properly. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
- The product the joint needs
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Roughly how big the job is
- If someone has resealed it before
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
