About our glazing silicone in Spencers Wood
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. Common call-outs are for leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and new silicone smeared over old sealant, across glass-to-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames.
Many houses in smaller places like Spencers Wood have conservatories, garden rooms or patio doors. Their glazing joints and frame seals are as much a part of the job as the windows.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

DIY versus a professional finish
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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Why act early in Spencers Wood
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. If the leak is a failed sealant joint renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. Homes in smaller places like Spencers Wood can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
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.

How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job usually takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a job in Spencers Wood, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Old sealant is removed carefully from the glass before new glazing silicone goes in.
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Frames and glazing around Spencers Wood
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House (about 3.3 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Spencers Wood 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.
Rented homes near Reading Green Park station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Homes close to St Michael and All Angels include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
- Which sealant suits the joint
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
Asking for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- A few photos by email, if you can
Need a quote? Please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details. We’ll explain what we’d do and give you a clear quote before any work starts.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
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.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.
