About our glazing silicone in Sibley's Green
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. If you have a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray, we can put it right, on glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and glass balustrade bases alike.
Somewhere as small as Sibley's Green, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Glass balustrade bases
The base of a glass balustrade is normally sealed. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We remove the failed sealant and renew it.
For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together.
Landlords and letting agents in Sibley's Green can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
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.
What affects the quote in Sibley's Green
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- How many areas need sealing

- Working hours on commercial sites
- Any mould that needs treating
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
