Glazing & conservatory sealant in Capel, Surrey
Glazing silicone for conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens for homes and businesses in Capel and across Surrey. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
What we are called out for in Capel
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould grows into the bead and the edges begin to peel.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Water running down inside the glass
For landlords with property near Ockley station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Glazing silicone in Capel
Glass replacement is not something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints and that’s often where the water gets in. We work on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about split or lifting silicone on glass and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Capel is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Capel as everywhere else we work.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. 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 happens if it’s left?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Capel, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Windows and doors in Capel
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Schools such as Scott Broadwood CofE Infant School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you live in an older home near Church of St John the Baptist, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work usually takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Capel needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Different surfaces, different methods
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
