Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Ditton Hill

Across Ditton Hill, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job, with a sealant chosen for the joint. We work on conservatory frames, glass-to-frame joints and rooflights, and people most often call us about stained, discoloured glazing silicone and water escaping where a screen meets the wall.

London’s Victorian and Edwardian terraces were built with timber sash windows, and many still have them or their replacements. Either way, the mastic between frame and brickwork is what stops draughts and rain getting in.

Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Whether the work is at height
  • The size of the job
  • Any mould that needs treating

Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

What we need to know

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

  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

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. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.

What glazing silicone looks like in Ditton Hill

In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so it’s worth checking before booking. With historic houses such as Hampton Court Palace (about 2 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Ditton Hill as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

For landlords with property near Surbiton station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Managing a site like Long Ditton Infant and Nursery School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

When to call us in Ditton Hill

UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
  • Water running down inside the glass
  • Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
  • Silicone pulling away from the glass

As a London address, Ditton Hill can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Before booking anyone

  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What insurance they hold
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

10 questions to ask before booking

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get a new leak looked at quickly
  • Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
  • Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
  • Open vents or windows to let moisture out

Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.

Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ditton Hill

Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in Ditton Hill, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Do I have to be there?

Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?

Yes, we reseal the joint at the base channel. Fitting glass is a separate trade.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In Ditton Hill, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  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

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
