Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Do not use a blade near the sealant
  • Use gentle products around the joints
  • Keep air moving in the conservatory

Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.

Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.

About our glazing silicone in Ashford Hill

Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away spoils the look and lets water in. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass before the new bead goes in. Typical jobs include drips on the inside of a conservatory window and new silicone smeared over old sealant, across rooflights, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints.

Homes in small places like Ashford Hill often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When something else is needed

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • A frame that needs repairing or replacing
  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

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

Surface by surface

Glass-to-glass joints

Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.

Glass-to-frame joints

Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We choose a product that suits both.

How we quote for glazing silicone

You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • How many areas need sealing
  • The size of the job
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • The type of property
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

If you’re in Ashford Hill and need glazing silicone, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you will get a clear quote before work begins.

Common problems we fix in Ashford Hill

Some conservatory leaks aren’t sealant at all: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. We find the cause before we seal anything.

People normally contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
  • Failed sealant around rooflight glass
  • Cracked silicone between glass panels
  • Stained, discoloured glazing silicone

If you look after a building such as Ashford Hill Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

What to look for in a quote

  • How much experience the applicator has
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What product goes in the joint
  • How hidden problems are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

Ashford Hill homes and the weather

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Paul, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. If you let a flat or house near Midgham station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Can I do it myself?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

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. All the old material has to come out first.

What happens on the day

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Ashford Hill needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First we agree the joints to be done.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  3. We clean and prepare the joint.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. We inspect the work and test it where we can.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
