For landlords and businesses
Letting agents and landlords in Lee Gate can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
About our glazing silicone in Lee Gate
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away spoils the look and lets water in. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass and reseal the joint. We work on rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about water running down inside the glass and silicone pulling away from the glass.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Lee Gate is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Frames that have decayed or split
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Conservatory frames
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Shower screens
- Glass balustrade bases
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
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.
Glazing silicone in Lee Gate: local notes
With historic houses such as Cholesbury Manor House (about 2.2 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Lee Gate as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, 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, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you look after a building such as Lee Common Church of England School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Wendover station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. If you live in an older home near Old Church of St John the Baptist, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Lee Gate
Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before it shows. In a small place like Lee Gate, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for most jobs. In a small place like Lee Gate, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

FAQs for Lee Gate
Will you come out to Lee Gate?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Wendover station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
How long before the joint can be used?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Do you replace glass?
Glass replacement is not our trade. We reseal the joints around it, and we will tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Usually, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
