Glazing silicone for Poplar homes and businesses

How we handle glazing silicone in Poplar

Glass replacement isn’t something we do, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. Common call-outs are for cracked silicone between glass panels and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, across glass-to-glass joints, conservatory frames and glass balustrade bases.

London has a lot of flats and conversions, where windows are often on upper floors. In a converted house or block, the lease generally says who is responsible for the windows, so it’s worth checking before booking.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Act on drips or damp patches early
  • Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Wipe the screen down after showering
  • Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant

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

Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we’ll tell you which.

Questions from Poplar

Can parking be tricky for a visit in Poplar?

London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.

Do you cover Poplar for glazing silicone?

Yes, Poplar is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.

Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, glazing sealant included.

Do you replace glass?

No. We renew the sealant. Glass and sealed units need a glazier.

Where do you work from?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Poplar, along with the rest of our area.

What information do you need?

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

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes, regularly. Several properties can be quoted together.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How we quote for glazing silicone

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How much there is to do

The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Helping us quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • The problem you’ve noticed

There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Surface by surface

Rooflights

A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.

Shower screens

Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.

Landlord and commercial work in Poplar

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

How the visit works

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a London area like Poplar, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. We cut away the failed silicone.
  3. The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Frames and glazing around Poplar

Historic houses like Queen's House (about 1.9 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Poplar has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so check that before you book.

Schools such as Tower Hamlets College are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Poplar is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you let a flat or house near Canary Wharf station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
