What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Somewhere as small as Effingham, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

About our glazing silicone in Effingham
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks generally come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. If you’re dealing with leaks from the base of a shower screen and failed joints on frameless glass, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Effingham, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number of rooms or windows
- The type of sealant required
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Surface by surface
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
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.
Effingham homes and the weather
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. With historic houses such as Polesden Lacey (about 1.4 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Effingham as well as newer homes. 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 Bookham station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as St Lawrence Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Homes close to Church of St Lawrence include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Will you come out to Effingham?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How long does glazing silicone take?
Typically it takes a few hours for most jobs. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Effingham?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
Yes, we reseal the joint at the base channel. We do not install or replace the glass.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job, glazing sealant included.
What happens if it’s left?
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before it shows. Around Effingham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.
