Windows and doors in East Dulwich
In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so it’s worth checking before booking. With historic houses such as Kingswood House (about 2.2 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around East Dulwich as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
Managing a site like Dog Kennel Hill School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near The Latter Rain Outpouring Revival Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. East Dulwich is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Glazing silicone in East Dulwich, done properly
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass spoils the look and lets water in. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass before the new bead goes in. If you are dealing with shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and silicone pulling away from the glass, we can help, whatever the surface.
Many London homes are flats, with windows high above the street. 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.

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and let the room air. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
Leave it or put it right?
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What you get with us
- We are fully insured
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Colour picked to suit the job
- Over 20 years’ experience

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What affects the quote in East Dulwich
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Whether it has been sealed before
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What’s wrong with the joints now
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. For a job in East Dulwich, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Move anything stored near the joints
How to get a quote

Is parking an issue for glazing silicone in East Dulwich?
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.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
How long does glazing silicone take?
A typical job takes a few hours for most jobs. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
It doesn’t last. Fresh silicone will not bond to cured silicone so we take it all out and start clean.
