Allhallows Glazing Silicone
Glazing joints in Allhallows need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for most jobs in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Allhallows, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
Glazing silicone in Allhallows
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks usually come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. We are often asked to deal with water tracking down the inner face of the glass and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, across shower screens, glass balustrade bases and rooflights.
Around Allhallows, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Allhallows questions
Does the coastal weather in Allhallows affect outside sealant?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
I let a flat near Chalkwell station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. We cut out the old sealant first.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint with a suitable product.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. It may be sealant, or something else and we’ll find out which.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:
- The number of rooms or windows

- Any working-time requirements on site
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

What we’re called out for in Allhallows
UV light ages silicone and roof joints get the most sun. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking to the glass and frame.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
Rented homes near Chalkwell station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

- Whether you can choose the colour

- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
Glass-to-glass joints
Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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.
Allhallows homes and the weather
Allhallows is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you look after a building such as Allhallows Primary Academy, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. In the older streets around Church of All Saints, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
