Putney homes and the weather
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. In London conversions and blocks, the lease decides who is responsible for the frames, so check that before you book.
Homes close to Polish Church of St John the Evangelist include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. If you look after a building such as Our Lady of Victories Catholic Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Glazing silicone in Putney
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away spoils the look and lets water in. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass before the new bead goes in. We are often asked to deal with stained, discoloured glazing silicone and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, on rooflights, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints.
London homes have every kind of window, from timber sashes in period terraces to aluminium and uPVC in newer blocks. Over the years, the sealant around them shrinks, cracks and pulls away, which is when draughts and damp patches appear in homes in Putney.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Landlord and commercial work in Putney
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Landlords and letting agents in Putney can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and let the room air. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In Putney, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Glass-to-frame joints
The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that’s often finished with sealant. Failed sealant there lets water collect.

Honest limits
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- Glass that needs replacing
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Do you need glazing silicone in Putney?
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
If you let a flat or house near Putney station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Common questions in Putney
Is parking a problem for a job in Putney?
Parking in Putney, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Putney station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. 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 have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Many leaks we see come from exactly that. We remove the old silicone, clean the joint and reseal.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No. We renew the sealant. A glazier replaces glass and units.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
Often, if the leak is at a sealant joint. We find where the water gets in first, so you know what you’re paying for.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Usually, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
We pick a glazing silicone to suit the materials. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
