Sandy Balls Glazing Silicone
Problem with your glazing joints in Sandy Balls? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
Why deal with it now?
Replacing windows or a shower screen is not needed for a failed joint. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. Around Sandy Balls, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Why Sandy Balls clients choose us
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Tidy, careful work

About our glazing silicone in Sandy Balls
Across Sandy Balls, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method, with a sealant chosen for the joint. Common call-outs are for mouldy sealant around glass panels and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, across conservatory frames, rooflights and glass-to-frame joints.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Sandy Balls is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Common problems we fix in Sandy Balls
UV light ages silicone and roof joints get the most sun. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking to the glass and frame.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Water running down inside the glass
Managing a site like The Burgate School and Sixth Form? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the cure time is
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs
- The number of rooms or windows
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Where the property is
- If someone has resealed it before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.
Sandy Balls: your questions answered
Do you cover Sandy Balls for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Sandy Balls is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Sandy Balls within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Sandy Balls?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Sandy Balls, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Glazing silicone in Sandy Balls: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Breamore House (about 2.9 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Sandy Balls as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Homes close to St Giles include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
