DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Glazing silicone in Woolmer Green
Glass replacement isn’t something we do, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. We work on shower screens, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints, and common reasons people get in touch are glass-to-glass joints that have split and stained, discoloured glazing silicone.
Somewhere as small as Woolmer Green, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Do not use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Woolmer Green
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we will tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Woolmer Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Do you need glazing silicone in Woolmer Green?
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
The most common problems we see are:
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Michael's Woolmer Green CofE VA Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before you book

- What insurance they hold
- What the cure time is
How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We check which it is.
Woolmer Green: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Woolmer Green?
Yes. Woolmer Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Knebworth station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do the sealants smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- Glass that needs replacing
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Windows and doors in Woolmer Green
With historic houses such as Knebworth House (about 2 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Woolmer Green as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. 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.
Rented homes near Knebworth station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. In the older streets around Church of St Michael and All Angels, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
