Glazing silicone in Alfold
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 are dealing with split or lifting silicone on glass and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, we can put it right, on rooflights, conservatory frames and glass balustrade bases alike.
Around Alfold, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

The process
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Alfold needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
Alfold questions
What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Alfold?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Alfold within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
We can. The old bead comes off without marking the glass before cleaning and resealing.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Alfold?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we will say so.
How long should I leave it?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
Surface by surface
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We renew it without marking the glass.
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.
Glazing silicone in Alfold: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In and around Alfold, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing

- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What happens if it’s left?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but silicone doesn’t stick to silicone, and the leak usually returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. Older cottages and farmhouses around Alfold can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
