About our glazing silicone in West Ilsley
Glass replacement isn’t something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. If you’re dealing with leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and silicone pulling away from the glass, we can put it right.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around West Ilsley is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Wipe the screen down after showering
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we’ll tell you which.

For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.

DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
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.
