Alscot Glazing Silicone
Professional glazing silicone in and around Alscot, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a 12-month guarantee.
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
Glazing silicone in Alscot
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. If you are dealing with rooflight joints letting water in and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, we can help, on shower screens, glass-to-glass joints and rooflights alike.
Homes in small places like Alscot often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Questions from Alscot
Can you do glazing silicone in Alscot?
Yes, Alscot is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Monks Risborough station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing by a glazier.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes, we do these often. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Alscot homes and the weather
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.
Schools such as Princes Risborough Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Homes close to St Teresa's Church include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Letting a property close to Monks Risborough station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Alscot needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
Getting a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.
Advice
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Quotes for glazing silicone in Alscot
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many areas need sealing
- The size of the job
- Any mould that needs treating
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- If someone has resealed it before
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- A few pictures by email, if you can
If you are in Alscot and need glazing silicone, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
Why act early in Alscot
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Alscot, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
