Hackney Wick Glazing Silicone
Our applicators work in Hackney Wick on glazing silicone for conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
About our glazing silicone in Hackney Wick
Sealant on glazing doesn’t last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down and cracked joints let water in. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. If you’re dealing with shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and water tracking down the inner face of the glass, we can help, whatever the surface.
London’s Victorian and Edwardian terraces were built with timber sash windows, and many still have them or their replacements. Either way, the mastic between frame and brickwork is what stops draughts and rain getting in.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Should I try it myself first?
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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Windows and doors in Hackney Wick
In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so it’s worth checking before booking. Historic houses like Sutton House (about 1.3 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Hackney Wick 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.
Rented homes near Hackney Wick station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. As a London address, Hackney Wick can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hackney Wick
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant will not help. We will tell you that rather than seal it anyway, so you can call the right trade. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Putting it right early is much less trouble for homes in Hackney Wick.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. 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 leak gets worse.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number and length of the joints
- The product the joint needs

Signs you need glazing silicone in Hackney Wick
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Water running down inside the glass
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
Homes close to St Mary of Eton include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
