Glazing & conservatory sealant in Lake, Isle of Wight
Our applicators work in Lake on glazing silicone for conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Water running down inside the glass
Glazing silicone in Lake
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. Typical jobs include glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and water tracking down the inner face of the glass, on shower screens, conservatory frames and glass balustrade bases.
In a smaller place like Lake, some walls face open ground and catch the full force of the weather, so exposed windows and doors face the weather head on. That is hard on the mastic around frames and sills.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Lake and everywhere else we cover.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing and we leave things clean and tidy. A visit to Lake is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Why deal with it now?
Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. A small leak can reach the floor below before you notice. In an older home around Lake, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Frames and glazing around Lake
Lake is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Schools such as Broadlea Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Lake station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Quotes for glazing silicone in Lake

- The product the joint needs
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

How the job changes by surface
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that’s often finished with sealant. Failed sealant there lets water collect.
Glass-to-frame joints
Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
Questions from Lake
Do you work for landlords with property near Lake station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Lake within the area you cover?
Yes, Lake is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If it’s a broken panel, failed unit or roof problem, we’ll tell you.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
New silicone won’t bond to old silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
Common problems we fix in Lake
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products do not bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Look out for these signs:
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
Homes close to Church of The Good Shepherd include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
