About our glazing silicone in Catford
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Weather and movement take their toll and cracked joints let water in. Resealing puts that right. We’re often asked to deal with glass-to-glass joints that have split and split or lifting silicone on glass, on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints.
London has a lot of flats and conversions, where windows are often on upper floors. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Frames and glazing around Catford
In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so it’s worth checking before booking. Historic houses like Eltham Palace (about 2.8 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Catford has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Holy Cross Catholic Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. As a London address, Catford can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Homes close to Church of St Laurence and Community Centre include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Why act early in Catford
Replacing windows or a shower screen isn’t needed for a failed joint. Sound glass and frames usually just need resealing. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in Catford, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Catford questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Catford Bridge station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is parking a problem for a job in Catford?
Parking in Catford, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly.
What guarantee do I get?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to every job we do.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
Many leaks we see come from exactly that. We remove the old silicone, clean the joint and reseal.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Catford?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.
Landlord and commercial work in Catford
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Quotes for glazing silicone in Catford
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many areas need sealing
- The number and length of the joints
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: 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 go through it with you.

When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Glass that needs replacing
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Glass balustrade bases
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Conservatory frames
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
