Can tenants book the work?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Glazing silicone in Fiddlers Hamlet

Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks normally come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you have shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Homes in small places like Fiddlers Hamlet often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

DIY versus a professional finish

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

How it works

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Fiddlers Hamlet needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

When to call us in Fiddlers Hamlet

Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Some products do not bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Leaks from the base of a shower screen
  • Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How hidden problems are handled
  • How long to leave it before use
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether you can choose the colour

Windows and doors in Fiddlers Hamlet

Historic houses like Hill Hall (about 1.4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Fiddlers Hamlet has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ivy Chimneys Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

How we quote for glazing silicone

There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The number of rooms or windows

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Whether it has been sealed before

Want a quote for glazing silicone? Please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the job. You’ll know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Condensation trapped between two panes
  • A frame that needs repairing or replacing
  • Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

How to look after the new joints

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Squeegee the shower screen after each use
  • Do not use a blade near the sealant
  • Act on drips or damp patches early
  • Check the silicone on glass every year or so

Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. A soft cloth or sponge is best.

A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.
