Glazing silicone for Parkgate homes and businesses

Surface by surface

Glass balustrade bases

Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.

Shower screens

Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We reseal without scratching the glass.

About our glazing silicone in Parkgate

Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, finished with a neat, even bead. We’re often asked to deal with failed joints on frameless glass and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray, on rooflights, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints.

Somewhere as small as Parkgate, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Parkgate as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a small place like Parkgate, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, we check where the water gets in.
  2. We remove the old sealant carefully.
  3. The joint is cleaned and degreased.
  4. We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
  5. We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice

Why act early in Parkgate

If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant will not help. We’ll tell you that rather than seal it anyway, so you can call the right trade. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Parkgate, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

Why us?

  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • Full insurance on every job
  • We agree the colour with you first
  • More than 20 years in sealant work

Read our cost guide and what customers say.

When something else is needed

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Condensation trapped between two panes
  • Cracked or broken glass
  • A roof that has moved or dropped

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we seal

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

What glazing silicone looks like in Parkgate

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Smallhythe Place (about 3.7 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Parkgate has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.

Smallhythe Place, about 3.7 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Parkgate. If you look after a building such as Homewood School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The size of the job

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we need to know

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
