About our glazing silicone in Skittle Green
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. If you have conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and black or yellowed silicone on glass joints, we can put it right, on conservatory frames, glass-to-glass joints and glass-to-frame joints alike.
Around Skittle 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Skittle Green and everywhere else we cover.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Windows and doors in Skittle Green
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In the older streets around Church of the Holy Trinity, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Schools such as Princes Risborough School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Skittle Green 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.
- 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.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Quotes for glazing silicone in Skittle Green
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether the work is at height
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The rough size of the job
To get a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before we start.
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Use gentle products around the joints
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and let the room air. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.
What we’re called out for in Skittle Green
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
Rented homes near Princes Risborough station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is
- How hidden problems are handled
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Are they insured?
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
