Glazing & conservatory sealant in South Lambeth, Greater London
Professional glazing silicone in and around South Lambeth, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a 12-month guarantee.
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
The process
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In a London area like South Lambeth, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Move anything stored near the joints

About our glazing silicone in South Lambeth
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 both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you are dealing with water getting into a conservatory at the joints and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, we can put it right, on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and conservatory frames alike.
Many London homes are flats, with windows high above the street. In a converted house or block, the lease generally says who is responsible for the windows, so it’s worth checking before booking, and access in South Lambeth is something to talk through when you book.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What glazing silicone looks like in South Lambeth
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Buckingham Palace (about 1.8 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around South Lambeth as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
If you look after a building such as Herbert Morrison Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as St Stephen's Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Common questions in South Lambeth
Do you work for landlords with property near Vauxhall station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in South Lambeth?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
How long does glazing silicone take?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Do you come to South Lambeth?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, South Lambeth included.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you replace glass?
Glass replacement isn’t our trade. We reseal the joints around it, and we’ll tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing can’t fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We will tell you that rather than seal it anyway, so you can call the right trade. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Why us?
- Tidy, careful work
- Colour agreed with you before work begins
- Fully insured
- A 12-month guarantee on all work

Do you need glazing silicone in South Lambeth?
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould gets into it and the joint starts to lift.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
Rented homes near Vauxhall station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Before booking anyone
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How hidden problems are handled
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and let the room air. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.
How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
