About our glazing silicone in Burwash Common
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that is suited to glass and the frame, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We work on glass-to-glass joints, shower screens and glass balustrade bases, and the jobs we see most are failed joints on frameless glass and mouldy sealant around glass panels.
Around Burwash Common, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Burwash Common needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
Check the joints once a year. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.

DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
How we quote for glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How much there is to do
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Burwash Common: your questions answered
Do you cover Burwash Common for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Burwash Common is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Burwash Common?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
We can. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint using a sealant that suits the materials.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we will say so.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before work begins. It will not solve:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Glass that needs replacing
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
- Shower screens
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
What happens if it’s left?
Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before it shows. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Burwash Common, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

- We leave the area clean and tidy
- More than 20 years in sealant work

Glazing silicone in Burwash Common: local notes
With historic houses such as Bateman's (about 1.8 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Burwash Common as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you live in an older home near St Philip's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. For landlords with property near Stonegate station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
