What the job involves on each surface
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that is often finished with sealant. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Glass-to-frame joints
The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We choose a product that suits both.
Glazing silicone in Mildmay, done properly
Across Mildmay, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method. Typical jobs include a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, on rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases.
London has a lot of flats and conversions, where windows are often on upper floors. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

What we are called out for in Mildmay
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
Homes close to Church of St Jude and St Paul include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.
What your quote should include
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
Landlords, agents and businesses in Mildmay
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Glazing silicone in Mildmay: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so check that before booking.
Managing a site like Newington Green Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Mildmay is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, depending on the size of the job. For a job in Mildmay, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we’ll be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Why deal with it now?
A leaking joint will not fix itself. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Why Mildmay clients choose us
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Glass that needs replacing
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
