How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
How we handle glazing silicone in Stapleford Tawney
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We find the joint that’s letting water in and renew it, and if it’s something sealant cannot fix, we’ll tell you. We’re often asked to deal with stained, discoloured glazing silicone and leaks from the base of a shower screen, across rooflights, shower screens and glass-to-frame joints.
Around Stapleford Tawney, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

What glazing silicone looks like in Stapleford Tawney
The South East is one of 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 Hill Hall (about 0.9 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Stapleford Tawney as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
In the older streets around Church of St Mary, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What does glazing silicone cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
When is the sealant fully cured?
It depends on the product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we’ll agree it with you first.
