DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Glazing silicone in Gipsy Hill
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it, and if it’s something sealant cannot fix, we’ll tell you. We work on rooflights, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about split or lifting silicone on glass and water running down inside the glass.
London has a lot of flats and conversions, where windows are often on upper floors. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first, and access in Gipsy Hill is something to talk through when you book.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Gipsy Hill. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

Windows and doors in Gipsy Hill
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Kingswood House (about 0.5 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Gipsy Hill as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
If you look after a building such as Paxton Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Gipsy Hill is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. For landlords with property near Gipsy Hill station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Gipsy Hill: your questions answered
Do you cover Gipsy Hill for glazing silicone?
Yes, Gipsy Hill is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Gipsy Hill station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
Often, if the leak is at a sealant joint. We find where the water gets in first before any sealing.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Why act early in Gipsy Hill
Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We will tell you that rather than seal it anyway and point you to a glazier or roofer. In a flat in Gipsy Hill, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Why Gipsy Hill clients choose us
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- Full insurance on every job

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.
