Glazing silicone in Hacton
Sealant on glazing does not last for ever. Weather and movement take their toll, and once it cracks, water follows. Resealing puts that right. We work on shower screens, rooflights and glass balustrade bases, and people most often call us about water escaping where a screen meets the wall and split or lifting silicone on glass.
London homes have every kind of window, from timber sashes in period terraces to aluminium and uPVC in newer blocks. The mastic around them dries out and cracks with age, letting in draughts and water.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Whether the work is at height
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
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 the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The address or postcode of the job
If you’re in Hacton and need glazing silicone, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and you will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured for the work.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Glass that needs replacing
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- A roof that has moved or dropped
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Windows and doors in Hacton
Historic houses like Rainham Hall (about 2.1 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Hacton 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. 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.
Managing a site like Scotts Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Hacton is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Letting a property close to Upminster station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.
How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

What happens if it’s left?
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Hacton, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- You choose the colour before work begins
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Old sealant always removed completely
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
