About our glazing silicone in Lower Slackstead
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We work on shower screens, glass-to-glass joints and rooflights, and people most often call us about water escaping where a screen meets the wall and water getting into a conservatory at the joints.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Lower Slackstead is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Lower Slackstead and everywhere else we cover.

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. A full reseal sorts it.
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.

Lower Slackstead questions

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is Lower Slackstead within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A glazing-grade silicone is best. Ours is a neutral-cure glazing silicone with anti-fungal products in bathrooms.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
What happens if it’s left?
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant will not help. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Lower Slackstead, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- More than 20 years in sealant work

Windows and doors in Lower Slackstead
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Mottisfont Abbey (about 4.3 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Lower Slackstead has older buildings as well as new. 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.
In the older streets around Church of All Saints, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Do you need glazing silicone in Lower Slackstead?
Not every leak is a sealant problem: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. That is why we trace the leak first.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
For landlords with property near Romsey station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
