About our glazing silicone in Gallows Corner
Glass replacement is not something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that’s often where the water gets in. We’re often asked to deal with glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and rooflight joints letting water in, across shower screens, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints.
London has a lot of flats and conversions, where windows are often on upper floors. In a converted house or block, the lease normally says who is responsible for the windows, so it’s worth checking before booking, and access in Gallows Corner is something to talk through when you book.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How we quote for glazing silicone
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How much there is to do
- Access and height
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
Helping us quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The type of property
- A few pictures by email, if you can

Windows and doors in Gallows Corner
In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so check that before you book. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Rented homes near Gidea Park station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Gallows Corner is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Common problems we fix in Gallows Corner
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
For an older house near a landmark such as St Michael and All Angels Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What preparation is included
- How much experience the applicator has
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In Gallows Corner, 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.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Related advice
Why act early in Gallows Corner
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 London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in Gallows Corner.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
That’s not something we do. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed, and a glazier needs to replace it.
How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Gallows Corner?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
