How we handle glazing silicone in Ripley
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. If you’re dealing with leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Ripley, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

Ripley homes and the weather
Historic houses like Byfleet Manor (about 2.6 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Ripley 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. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Rented homes near Clandon station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary Magdalen, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Managing a site like Ripley Court School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

FAQs for Ripley
I let a flat near Clandon station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is Ripley in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Ripley is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will explain which colours are available.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Bigger jobs take longer.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Old sealant is removed carefully from the glass and reseal with glazing silicone.
Glass balustrade bases
Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Ripley, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
How to get a quote

What we cannot put right
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It will not solve:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- Glass that needs replacing
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Rooflights
Why deal with it now?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we will tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Ripley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
