About our glazing silicone in Chalk Farm
We work across Chalk Farm on glazing joints for homes and businesses. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method. We work on shower screens, glass-to-glass joints and glass balustrade bases, and the jobs we see most are water escaping where a screen meets the wall and silicone pulling away from the glass.
From mansion-block windows to modern glazing in new flats, London has every kind of frame. The mastic around them dries out and cracks with age, which is when draughts and damp patches appear in homes in Chalk Farm.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.

How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
Windows and doors in Chalk Farm
In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so check that before you book. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In the older streets around St Silas Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Managing a site like Haverstock School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Advice
Common questions in Chalk Farm
Is parking an issue for glazing silicone in Chalk Farm?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Can you do glazing silicone in Chalk Farm?
Yes, Chalk Farm is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
We can. The old sealant is removed and the joint resealed with a suitable product.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes. We remove the old sealant and reseal the wall and tray joints.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
What we can’t put right
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Frames that have decayed or split
- A broken pane or roof panel
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Landlord and commercial work in Chalk Farm
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Chalk Farm
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out leaving a path for water.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Failed joints on frameless glass
Chalk Farm is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
