How we handle glazing silicone in Minley
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass and reseal the joint. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and glass balustrade bases, and the jobs we see most are mouldy sealant around glass panels and cracked silicone between glass panels.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Minley is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Minley as everywhere else we work.

Windows and doors in Minley
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Andrew, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Letting a property close to Fleet station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you look after a building such as Frogmore Community College, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Minley: your questions answered
I let a flat near Fleet station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is Minley in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Minley is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you replace glass?
We do not replace glass. We look after the sealant joints, and we’ll tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If it’s a broken panel, failed unit or roof problem, we will tell you.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
It does not last. The new bead cannot grip the old one, so we remove the old sealant and clean the joint.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Why act early in Minley
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone will not bond to old and water soon finds its way back. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. In a small place like Minley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Minley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

What affects the quote in Minley
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Catching a split early keeps the repair small.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.
