Michelmersh: your questions answered

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Do you cover Michelmersh for glazing silicone?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Michelmersh is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.

Is it worth trying it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Why not top up the existing silicone?

Topping up is a common cause of leaks. We remove the old silicone, clean the joint and reseal.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Which silicone is used for glass joints?

We pick a glazing silicone to suit the materials. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.

What guarantee do I get?

All our work has a one-year guarantee.

How we handle glazing silicone in Michelmersh

Sealant on glazing does not last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. Typical jobs include drips on the inside of a conservatory window and mouldy sealant around glass panels, across glass-to-glass joints, shower screens and rooflights.

Homes in small places like Michelmersh often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

How the job changes by surface

Conservatory frames

Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.

Shower screens

Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not use a blade near the sealant
  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Stick to mild cleaners on glass
  • Look over the glazing joints once a year

Keep conservatory gutters clear so water does not back up against the seals. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.

A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.

For landlords and businesses

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

For anyone letting property in or around Michelmersh, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

Common problems we fix in Michelmersh

Sealant laid over old sealant does not last. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out, and water gets between the layers.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Failed joints on frameless glass
  • Leaks from the base of a shower screen
  • Silicone pulling away from the glass
  • Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints

Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What insurance they hold
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why

Our hiring checklist

Michelmersh homes and the weather

With historic houses such as Mottisfont Abbey (about 1.2 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Michelmersh as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.

Letting a property close to Mottisfont & Dunbridge station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

What we can’t put right

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
  • Rotten or badly damaged frames

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

What we seal

  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Shower screens
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Conservatory frames
  • Rooflights

DIY versus a professional finish

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Michelmersh needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First we agree the joints to be done.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
