About our glazing silicone in Sidlow
Not every silicone suits glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We work on glass-to-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and rooflights, and the jobs we see most are a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and water escaping where a screen meets the wall.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Sidlow is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
FAQs for Sidlow
Is Sidlow in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Sidlow is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Sidlow?
Yes. Sidlow is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes, where the base is finished with sealant. Photos help us see what’s there.
What we cannot put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Cracked or broken glass
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Rooflights
We reseal the glazing joints on rooflights. Leaks from the roof itself need a roofer.
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.

Glazing silicone in Sidlow: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
In the older streets around Emmanuel Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Schools such as Dovers Green School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
Check the joints once a year. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
Common problems we fix in Sidlow
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Water running down inside the glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
For landlords with property near Salfords station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
