About our glazing silicone in Tye Green
Not every silicone suits glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. Typical jobs include glass-to-glass joints that have split and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, on glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Tye Green is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Tye Green homes and the weather
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 Horham Hall (about 3.6 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Tye Green 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.
Schools such as Wimbish Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Rented homes near Newport (Essex) station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- The number of rooms or windows
- The size of the job
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

How the job changes by surface

Glass balustrade bases
Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. A sound sealant joint keeps them tidy and dry.

Related advice
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Do you need glazing silicone in Tye Green?
Not every leak is a sealant problem: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. That is why we trace the leak first.
Look out for any of the following:
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
Homes close to St Paul's Mission Room include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- A roof that has moved or dropped
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
