What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs in most cases. Parking around St Clement's is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Glazing silicone in St Clement's
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Sun, rain and movement wear it down and cracked joints let water in. Resealing puts that right. If you have split or lifting silicone on glass and failed sealant around rooflight glass, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Houses in smaller places like St Clement's can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town. That’s hard on the mastic around frames and sills.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in St Clement's and everywhere else we cover.

Why act early in St Clement's
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. A small leak can reach the floor below before it shows. Homes in smaller places like St Clement's can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before we start.

What glazing silicone looks like in St Clement's
Historic houses like Holywell Manor (about 0.5 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around St Clement's has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Homes close to St Clement's Church include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. For landlords with property near Oxford station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
St Clement's is about 1 mile west of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. Across the OX4 area, we can carry out glazing silicone at your property. 443 places in Oxfordshire are on our list.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Cracked or broken glass
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof

Your questions about glazing silicone in St Clement's
Do you work for landlords with property near Oxford station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like St Clement's?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
It does not last. The new bead cannot grip the old one so we take it all out and start clean.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Is the work guaranteed?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How long does glazing silicone take?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Do you replace glass?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing by a glazier.
How the job changes by surface
Glass balustrade bases
The base joint is cut out and resealed. Glass fitting is a separate trade.
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
Common problems we fix in St Clement's
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature, and they don’t move by the same amount. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as East Oxford Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
