Glazing silicone in Burnt Oak

About our glazing silicone in Burnt Oak

Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Sun, rain and movement wear it down and cracked joints let water in. Resealing puts that right. Common call-outs are for glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and cracked silicone between glass panels, on glass balustrade bases, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints.

Much of London’s older housing was built with timber sash windows, some still in place and some long since replaced. Whatever is in the opening now, the joint between frame and wall is what keeps the weather out, in Burnt Oak as anywhere.

Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

When it isn’t the sealant

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • A sagging or failing conservatory roof
  • Frames that have decayed or split
  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)

If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Where we work in Burnt Oak

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

When to call us in Burnt Oak

Some conservatory leaks aren’t sealant at all: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. That’s why we trace the leak first.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
  • Silicone pulling away from the glass
  • Failed joints on frameless glass
  • A quick top-up bead that didn’t last

Schools such as The Annunciation RC Junior School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Is VAT in the price?

The process

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. For a job in Burnt Oak, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.

  1. First, we check where the water gets in.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
  4. We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
  5. We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.

Preparing for the visit

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice

DIY versus a professional finish

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Why deal with it now?

Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Burnt Oak, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Questions from Burnt Oak

Is Burnt Oak in your area for glazing silicone?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Burnt Oak is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

I let a flat near Mill Hill Broadway station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.

Can I do it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Will it make a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

Do you seal glass balustrade bases?

Yes. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint with a suitable product.

What sealant do you use on glazing?

A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe the screen down after showering
  • Stick to mild cleaners on glass
  • Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
  • Don’t use a blade near the sealant

Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Catching a split early keeps the repair small.

Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part and we’ll find out which.

Burnt Oak homes and the weather

Historic houses like Headstone Manor (about 4.2 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Burnt Oak has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

Letting a property close to Mill Hill Broadway station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Burnt Oak is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
