Common questions in Garston
Is Garston in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Garston is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
I let a flat near Garston station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
Silicone does not stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
Yes. The old sealant is removed and the joint resealed with a suitable product.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Usually, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Glazing silicone in Garston
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it, and if it’s something sealant can’t fix, we’ll tell you. We work on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and rooflights, and people most often call us about glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and water tracking down the inner face of the glass.
Houses in smaller places like Garston can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, so exposed windows and doors face the weather head on. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common problems we fix in Garston
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products do not bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
People normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
Managing a site like The Grove Academy? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.

Frames and glazing around Garston
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like High Elms Manor (about 1 mile north-west) are a reminder that the area around Garston has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
For landlords with property near Garston station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you live in an older home near Stanborough Park Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. A visit to Garston is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.
Why deal with it now?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. In a smaller place like Garston, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
