Glazing silicone in Wix Green
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. If you have failed sealant around rooflight glass and drips on the inside of a conservatory window, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Wix Green, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
What we’re called out for in Wix Green
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
For landlords with property near Wrabness station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
What your quote should include
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Are they insured?
- Whether you can choose the colour
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
How the job changes by 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.
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.
What happens if it’s left?
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but silicone doesn’t stick to silicone and water soon finds its way back. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. In a small place like Wix Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Wix Green
Will you come out to Wix Green?

I let a flat near Wrabness station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
Many leaks we see come from exactly that. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Wix Green?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The type of sealant required
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The type of property
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job.
How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Wix Green, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Glazing silicone in Wix Green: local notes
Wix Green is within about 3 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Historic houses like Thorpe Hall (about 4.2 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Wix Green has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Managing a site like Wix and Wrabness Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
