What affects the cost of glazing silicone

You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Whether the work is at height
  • Working hours on commercial sites

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before work begins.

Helping us quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.

Glazing silicone in Longworth

We work across Longworth on glazing joints for homes and businesses. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job. If you are dealing with a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, we can help, whatever the surface.

Around Longworth, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Different surfaces, different methods

Conservatory frames

Frame joints face sun and rain all year. Renewed sealant keeps water out.

Rooflights

Rooflights get the full force of the weather. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.

Can I do it myself?

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.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

What glazing silicone looks like in Longworth

With historic houses such as Longworth House (about 0.4 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Longworth as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Leave it or put it right?

You do not need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Longworth, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

How the visit works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Longworth needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First, we check where the water gets in.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
  4. We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

If you manage several properties in or around Longworth, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

Do you need glazing silicone in Longworth?

Heat and cold make glass and frames move at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
  • Cracked silicone between glass panels

Managing a site like Longworth Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Whether VAT is included
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are

Longworth: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee on glazing silicone in Longworth?

All our work, in Longworth and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Can you do glazing silicone in Longworth?

Yes, Longworth is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

When is the sealant fully cured?

It depends on the product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.

Is it messy?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

What sealant do you use on glazing?

We pick a glazing silicone to suit the materials. Neutral-cure silicone is the usual choice.

How long does the job take?

That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes a few hours for most jobs. We will give you a better idea when we quote.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
