About our glazing silicone in Streatley
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that is suited to glass and the frame, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We work on rooflights, conservatory frames and glass balustrade bases, and common reasons people get in touch are a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and silicone pulling away from the glass.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Streatley is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It usually takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere as small as Streatley, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- 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 parking rules near the property
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. It may be sealant, or something else, and we will tell you which.
Windows and doors in Streatley
Historic houses like Basildon Park (about 2.1 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Streatley has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Managing a site like Streatley C.E. Voluntary Controlled School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Goring & Streatley station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The size of the job
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The product the joint needs
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- If someone has resealed it before
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.
What we’re called out for in Streatley
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products do not bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether VAT is included
Streatley questions
Can you do glazing silicone in Streatley?
Yes, Streatley is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Goring & Streatley station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
What does glazing silicone cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
Yes. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint using a sealant that suits the materials.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes, it’s a common job. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
