Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Stratford St Mary
Glass replacement is not something we do, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass, which is where many leaks start. Common call-outs are for leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and failed sealant around rooflight glass, on rooflights, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints.
Homes in small places like Stratford St Mary often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

For landlords and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
When to call us in Stratford St Mary
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
If you let a flat or house near Manningtree station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Frames and glazing around Stratford St Mary
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. Historic houses like Castle House (about 1.7 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Stratford St Mary has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
In the older streets around Church of St Mary, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Stratford St Mary Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Related advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Stratford St Mary
Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before it shows. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stratford St Mary can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
Check the joints once a year. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix, before water gets in.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
