Glazing silicone in Deptford

Glazing silicone in Deptford, done properly

Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. If you have leaks from the base of a shower screen and rooflight joints letting water in, we can help, whatever the surface.

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, and access in Deptford is something to talk through when you book.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What we are called out for in Deptford

Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly, the bead can peel away early.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
  • Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
  • Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
  • Rooflight joints letting water in

Homes close to St. Paul's include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • What product goes in the joint
  • Is VAT in the price?

Glazing silicone in Deptford: local notes

In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so check that before booking. Historic houses like Queen's House (about 1 mile east) are a reminder that the area around Deptford has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

For landlords with property near Deptford station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Deptford is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
  • Frames that have decayed or split
  • A broken pane or roof panel

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we seal

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

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
  • Use gentle products around the joints
  • Inspect the sealant on glazing annually

On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.

Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part and we will find out which.

DIY versus a professional finish

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What affects the quote in Deptford

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The type of sealant required

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

What to tell us for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Where the property is
  • If someone has resealed it before

To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before we start.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Deptford

If you manage several properties in or around Deptford, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.

What happens on the day

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In a London area like Deptford, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we’ll be working on and any lift or shared entrance.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

How to get a quote

Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.
