Your questions about glazing silicone in Orlestone

Do you work for landlords with property near Ham Street station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you cover Orlestone for glazing silicone?

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

What information do you need?

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Will there be a smell?

Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

How long will you be here?

A typical job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Glazing silicone in Orlestone, done properly

Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. We work on conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about drips on the inside of a conservatory window and split or lifting silicone on glass.

Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Orlestone is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

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

How the visit works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Orlestone 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.

  1. First we agree the joints to be done.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. We clean and prepare the joint.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Getting a quote

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.

When to call us in Orlestone

The wrong sealant is a common cause. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
  • Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
  • Split or lifting silicone on glass
  • Mouldy sealant around glass panels

Rented homes near Ham Street station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

What your quote should include

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • The length of the guarantee
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

Different surfaces, different methods

Glass balustrade bases

The base of a glass balustrade is generally sealed. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.

Glass-to-glass joints

These joints are on show, so a straight, even finish matters.

What affects the quote in Orlestone

There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • The product the joint needs
  • The amount of work
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Helping us quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • The type of property
  • The rough size of the job
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • The address or postcode of the job

We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Frames and glazing around Orlestone

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.

If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Managing a site like Hamstreet Primary Academy? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Aftercare tips

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Look over the glazing joints once a year
  • Act on drips or damp patches early
  • Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
  • Stick to mild cleaners on glass

Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and keep the room ventilated. That slows mould growth on the bead.

Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. It may be sealant, or something else and we’ll find out which.
