About our glazing silicone in South Harrow
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, and the silicone between them takes the strain. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. We are often asked to deal with failed sealant around rooflight glass and failed joints on frameless glass, on glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints.
From mansion-block windows to modern glazing in new flats, London has every kind of frame. Over the years, the sealant around them shrinks, cracks and pulls away, letting in draughts and water.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in South Harrow as everywhere else we work.

What sealant work cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Cracked or broken glass
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a job in South Harrow, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property
How to get a quote

Common questions in South Harrow
Do you cover South Harrow for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and South Harrow is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is parking a problem for a job in South Harrow?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A glazing-grade silicone is best. Ours is a neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
We can, if the base joint is sealed. Photos help us see what’s there when you call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Signs you need glazing silicone in South Harrow
Some conservatory leaks are not sealant at all: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. We find the cause before we seal anything.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Paul, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- Is VAT in the price?
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Keep conservatory gutters clear so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.
Why deal with it now?
Resealing can’t fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly and point you to a glazier or roofer. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in South Harrow, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. A failed bead lets water in.
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.
For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

South Harrow homes and the weather
In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so check that before you book. With historic houses such as Northolt Manor (about 1.5 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around South Harrow as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
For landlords with property near Northolt Park station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. As a London address, South Harrow can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
