About our glazing silicone in Ewhurst
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass and reseal the joint. We are often asked to deal with drips on the inside of a conservatory window and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray, across glass balustrade bases, glass-to-frame joints and shower screens.
Somewhere as small as Ewhurst, 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.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

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 choose a glazing silicone instead. In a small place like Ewhurst, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Ewhurst
Is Ewhurst in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Ewhurst is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you work for landlords with property near Ockley station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If it’s a broken panel, failed unit or roof problem, we’ll tell you.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Glazing silicone in Ewhurst: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For landlords with property near Ockley station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you look after a building such as Ewhurst CofE Aided Infant School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a village or hamlet like Ewhurst, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
How we quote for glazing silicone
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many areas need sealing
- Working hours on commercial sites
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The rough size of the job
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that’s easy.
When to call us in Ewhurst
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products do not bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee
- Are they insured?
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Who turns up on the day
How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Old sealant is removed carefully from the glass before new glazing silicone goes in.
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
