- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
Check the joints once a year. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
About our glazing silicone in Russell's Green
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it, and if it’s something sealant can’t fix, we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include drips on the inside of a conservatory window and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, on shower screens, glass-to-frame joints and conservatory frames.
Around Russell's Green, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

How the job changes by surface
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.
What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a village or hamlet like Russell's Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Common problems we fix in Russell's Green
Heat and cold make glass and frames move, and they don’t move by the same amount. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Mary, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Questions from Russell's Green
Does the coastal weather in Russell's Green affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Is Russell's Green within the area you cover?
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 seal glass balustrade bases?
Yes, where the base is finished with sealant. Send us photos and we will take a look.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before any work starts.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing by a glazier.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Frames and glazing around Russell's Green
Russell's Green is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. 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.
If you let a flat or house near Cooden Beach station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Schools such as Ninfield Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
