Glazing silicone in Puttenham, done properly
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We find the joint that is letting water in and renew it, and if it’s something sealant can’t fix, we will tell you. We work on glass balustrade bases, shower screens and rooflights, and the jobs we see most are leaks from the base of a shower screen and water running down inside the glass.
In a village or hamlet like Puttenham, 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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. A failed bead lets water in.
Glass balustrade bases
We reseal the joint where the glass meets the base channel. We do not install or replace glass.
Landlord and commercial work in Puttenham
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.
When to call us in Puttenham
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
Rented homes near Cheddington station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
Before booking anyone
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How much experience the applicator has
- How hidden problems are handled
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Puttenham needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Frames and glazing around Puttenham
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. With historic houses such as Ascott House (about 4.9 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Puttenham as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary (Church of England), replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Schools such as Long Marston VA Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.

Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
