Glazing silicone in Sunningwell, done properly
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and stained, discoloured glazing silicone.
Somewhere as small as Sunningwell, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Sunningwell and everywhere else we cover.

What happens if it’s left?
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. In a small place like Sunningwell, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that is often finished with sealant. Failed sealant there lets water collect.
Glazing silicone in Sunningwell: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Appleton Manor (about 3.2 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Sunningwell as well as newer homes. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Leonard, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Schools such as Sunningwell Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Radley station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
