DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Glazing silicone in Monks Orchard, done properly
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you are dealing with leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and split or lifting silicone on glass, we can help, on shower screens, conservatory frames and glass balustrade bases alike.
From mansion-block windows to modern glazing in new flats, London has every kind of frame. Over the years, the sealant around them shrinks, cracks and pulls away, letting in draughts and water.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Why deal with it now?
You do not need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames normally just need resealing, and we’ll tell you if that is not the case. In a flat in Monks Orchard, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and let the room air. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
When to call us in Monks Orchard
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Water running down inside the glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
If you let a flat or house near Elmers End station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

How the visit works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

FAQs for Monks Orchard
Is parking a problem for a job in Monks Orchard?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
I let a flat near Elmers End station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes, we do these often. We use anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Do you work in Monks Orchard?
We do. Monks Orchard is part of the area we cover.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
A top-up rarely holds. The new bead cannot grip the old one, so we remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
Monks Orchard homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Addington Palace (about 1.8 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Monks Orchard as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Oasis Academy Shirley Park, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. As a London address, Monks Orchard can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
