Glazing silicone in Alton

What we’re called out for in Alton

On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould gets into it and the edges begin to peel.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
  • Rooflight joints letting water in
  • Water running down inside the glass
  • Silicone pulling away from the glass

In the older streets around Church of St Lawrence, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

About our glazing silicone in Alton

Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass and reseal the joint. We work on shower screens, glass-to-glass joints and glass balustrade bases, and the jobs we see most are black or yellowed silicone on glass joints and failed joints on frameless glass.

Walls in Alton that face the prevailing wind take the most weather, so the mastic there tends to fail first. Checking every frame, not just the obvious one, is time well spent.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Why it’s worth doing now in Alton

Replacing windows or a shower screen isn’t needed for a failed joint. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes, and we’ll tell you if that’s not the case. Gaps in sealant and mould in the bead never get better on their own, and in a busy household in Alton they spread with every shower and every downpour. Replacing the sealant now is the simplest fix.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

If you manage several properties in or around Alton, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.

What sealant work cannot fix

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:

  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
  • Glass that needs replacing
  • Frames that have decayed or split

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we seal

  • Rooflights
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Conservatory frames
  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Shower screens

What we do, step by step

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Parking in a town like Alton is usually straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.

  1. First we agree the joints to be done.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  3. We clean and prepare the joint.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. We inspect the work and test it where we can.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

How long before the joint can be used?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Do I have to be there?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

Alton homes and the weather

Historic houses like Bentworth Hall (about 3.2 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Alton has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, 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 Saint Lawrence Church of England Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Alton station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Aftercare tips

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Keep air moving in the conservatory
  • Do not leave a drip for the next storm
  • Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
  • Stick to mild cleaners on glass

Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.

If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
