About our glazing silicone in Gawcott
Glass replacement isn’t something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints and that’s often where the water gets in. We work on rooflights, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints, and common reasons people get in touch are drips on the inside of a conservatory window and black or yellowed silicone on glass joints.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Gawcott is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Gawcott questions
Do you cover smaller places like Gawcott?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is Gawcott in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Gawcott is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Can tenants book the work?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
What happens if it’s left?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. In a small place like Gawcott, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Frames and glazing around Gawcott
Historic houses like Stowe House (about 3.5 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Gawcott 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’s traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you look after a building such as Roundwood Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

What happens on the day
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. In a small place like Gawcott, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any working-time requirements on site
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved and send you a clear quote.
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Gawcott
Not every leak is a sealant problem: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. That’s why we trace the leak first.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of Holy Trinity, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
