About our glazing silicone in Upton
We don’t replace glass, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that’s often where the water gets in. Typical jobs include split or lifting silicone on glass and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, across shower screens, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints.
Around Upton, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Buckinghamshire.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right 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.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Upton, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Can I add another job to the visit?

What the job involves on each surface
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. We reseal them with a sealant suited to the frame.
Rooflights
Rooflights get the full force of the weather. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
Why deal with it now?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but silicone doesn’t stick to silicone, and the leak normally returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. Around Upton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Neat joints and a tidy finish

Windows and doors in Upton
Historic houses like Waddesdon Manor (about 3.9 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Upton 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you look after a building such as Stone Church of England Combined School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Letting a property close to Aylesbury Vale Parkway station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of Saints Peter and Paul, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
