Becontree Glazing Silicone
Glazing silicone for conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Becontree. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
How we handle glazing silicone in Becontree
Across Becontree, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job, with a sealant chosen for the joint. Typical jobs include failed sealant around rooflight glass and water running down inside the glass, across conservatory frames, shower screens and glass-to-frame joints.
Many London homes are flats, with windows high above the street. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- Glass that needs replacing
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

Quotes for glazing silicone in Becontree
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether the work is at height
- The product the joint needs
- The size of the job
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The address or postcode of the job
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Becontree

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Windows and doors in Becontree
Historic houses like Eastbury Manor House (about 2.1 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Becontree has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so it’s worth checking before booking.
Rented homes near Chadwell Heath station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Schools such as St Joseph's Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

When to call us in Becontree
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature, and they do not move by the same amount. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
Homes close to St George's include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Can I choose the sealant colour?
Usually, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
