How we handle glazing silicone in Greatness
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Weather and movement take their toll and cracked joints let water in. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. If you have stained, discoloured glazing silicone and cracked silicone between glass panels, we can put it right.
Houses in smaller places like Greatness 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Greatness and everywhere else we cover.

Why deal with it now?
Resealing can’t fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly and point you to a glazier or roofer. Around Greatness, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
Why us?
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Tidy, careful work

For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
FAQs for Greatness
Is Greatness in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Greatness is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Bat & Ball station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
It depends on the cause. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
Yes. The sealant joint at the base can be renewed. Fitting glass is a separate trade.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Cracked or broken glass
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. A visit to Greatness 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.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
What glazing silicone looks like in Greatness
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. Historic houses like Knole House (about 1.7 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Greatness has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
If you let a flat or house near Bat & Ball station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Homes close to St John the Baptist include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you look after a building such as St John's Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

What affects the quote in Greatness
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- How we’d reach the joints
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The rough size of the job
- Where the property is
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We find the cause first.
