Glazing silicone in Plaistow Green
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. If you are dealing with silicone pulling away from the glass and water tracking down the inner face of the glass, we can put it right, on shower screens, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames alike.
Homes in small places like Plaistow Green often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

Frames and glazing around Plaistow Green
Historic houses like St Leonard's Hill (about 2.5 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Plaistow Green has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Managing a site like Cranbourne Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Homes close to Church of St Peter include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.
Common problems we fix in Plaistow Green
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
People normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Water running down inside the glass
Rented homes near Ascot station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Do you replace glass?
We don’t replace glass. We look after the sealant joints and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.
