Glazing silicone in Burpham, done properly
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away spoils the look and lets water in. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass and reseal the joint. If you are dealing with water getting into a conservatory at the joints and black or yellowed silicone on glass joints, we can put it right, on glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and shower screens alike.
Around Burpham, conservatories, garden rooms and patio doors are often part of the house. Their glazing joints and frame seals are as much a part of the job as the windows, and any older timber or sash windows need a sealant that suits them.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below before you spot it.
What we are called out for in Burpham
Sealant laid over old sealant does not last. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out leaving a path for water.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
If you let a flat or house near London Road (Guildford) station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

What glazing silicone looks like in Burpham
Historic houses like Clandon Park (about 1.7 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Burpham 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. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In the older streets around Church of the Holy Spirit, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. If you look after a building such as George Abbot School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Shower screens

Burpham: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near London Road (Guildford) station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Burpham?
Yes. Burpham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
Glass needs a sealant made for glazing. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone with anti-fungal products in bathrooms.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
How long does glazing silicone take?
A typical job takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Quotes for glazing silicone in Burpham
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Access and height
- The amount of work
- How many areas need sealing
- Any working-time requirements on site
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The address or postcode of the job
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Should I try it myself 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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
