Different surfaces, different methods
Glass-to-glass joints
Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
Glass-to-frame joints
Old sealant is removed carefully from the glass before new glazing silicone goes in.
Glazing silicone in Charlton, done properly
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. We are often asked to deal with glass-to-glass joints that have split and water tracking down the inner face of the glass, across shower screens, rooflights and glass-to-frame joints.
Somewhere as small as Charlton, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours for most jobs. For a village or hamlet like Charlton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we agree the joints to be done.

What sealant work can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Glazing silicone in Charlton: local notes
Historic houses like Hampton Court Palace (about 4.6 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Charlton has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you look after a building such as Littleton CofE Infant School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Upper Halliford station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Homes close to Church of St Mary Magdalene include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

What’s near Charlton
Typical jobs here are in homes near Sunbury Manor School, The Bishop Wand Church of England School and Sunbury Park and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Upper Halliford station, roughly 0.6 miles east. A little further out are Kempton Steam Museum (2 miles north-east) and No. 2 New Zealand General Hospital (1.9 miles south-east). Not far away are St Ann's Hill and Ferris Meadow Lake.
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and let the room air. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.

What else we do in Charlton
Why it’s worth doing now in Charlton
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. Older cottages and farmhouses around Charlton can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
