Glazing silicone in Wimbish Green, done properly
Sealant on glazing doesn’t last for ever. Weather and movement take their toll, and once it cracks, water follows. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. We work on rooflights, conservatory frames and shower screens, and the jobs we see most are drips on the inside of a conservatory window and a quick top-up bead that didn’t last.
Homes in small places like Wimbish Green often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Leave it or put it right?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. In a small place like Wimbish Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

What we are called out for in Wimbish Green
Not every leak is a sealant problem: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. We find the cause before we seal anything.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
For an older house near a landmark such as St Paul's Mission Room, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Surface by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- Glass that needs replacing
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Frames and glazing around Wimbish Green
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Horham Hall (about 3.8 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Wimbish Green as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Letting a property close to Newport (Essex) station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Schools such as Wimbish Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
