Glazing silicone in Canary Wharf

How it works

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job in most cases. In a London area like Canary Wharf, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  3. We clean and prepare the joint.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Tell us about any water getting in

Advice

Glazing silicone in Canary Wharf

Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, and the silicone between them takes the strain. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We work on glass-to-frame joints, glass-to-glass joints and rooflights, and common reasons people get in touch are new silicone smeared over old sealant and drips on the inside of a conservatory window.

London homes have every kind of window, from timber sashes in period terraces to aluminium and uPVC in newer blocks. Over the years, the sealant around them shrinks, cracks and pulls away, letting in draughts and water.

Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Canary Wharf: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Canary Wharf station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Can parking be tricky for a visit in Canary Wharf?

It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.

Do you fit new glass or sealed units?

We do not replace glass. We reseal the joints around it, and we’ll tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.

How long does the job take?

It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

Are you insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?

Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.

Do I need to be at home?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.

Why it’s worth doing now in Canary Wharf

Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber so early action saves a bigger repair. In a flat in Canary Wharf, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

What we can’t put right

  • Rotten or badly damaged frames
  • Glass that needs replacing
  • Structural problems with a conservatory roof

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Canary Wharf homes and the weather

In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so check that before you book. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

For landlords with property near Canary Wharf station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Schools such as Our Lady and St Joseph Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Different surfaces, different methods

Shower screens

Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We renew it without marking the glass.

Glass-to-frame joints

The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.

What affects the quote in Canary Wharf

Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The type of sealant required
  • The number of rooms or windows

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, 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

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

Common problems we fix in Canary Wharf

Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.

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

  • Mouldy sealant around glass panels
  • Water running down inside the glass
  • Failed sealant around rooflight glass
  • Cracked silicone between glass panels

As a London address, Canary Wharf can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

What your quote should include

  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • What happens if the job turns out different

Our hiring checklist

Can I do it myself?

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.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
