Glazing Silicone in Sprig's Alley
Professional glazing silicone in and around Sprig's Alley, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
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.
About our glazing silicone in Sprig's Alley
Across Sprig's Alley, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method, with a sealant chosen for the joint. Typical jobs include split or lifting silicone on glass and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, on conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and shower screens.
Around Sprig's Alley, 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.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Sprig's Alley and across Oxfordshire.

Common questions in Sprig's Alley
Will you come out to Sprig's Alley?
Yes. Sprig's Alley is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Saunderton station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
We can. We remove the old silicone carefully, and the joints are cleaned and resealed.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
What happens if it’s left?
Replacing windows or a shower screen is not needed for a failed joint. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Sprig's Alley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Glazing silicone in Sprig's Alley: local notes
Historic houses like Adwell House (about 4.4 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Sprig's Alley has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Check the joints once a year. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part and we will find out which.
