Glazing silicone in Staplestreet

About our glazing silicone in Staplestreet

Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We find the joint that is letting water in and renew it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. We work on glass-to-glass joints, shower screens and conservatory frames, and common reasons people get in touch are leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and glass-to-glass joints that have split.

Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Staplestreet is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

The process

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a small place like Staplestreet, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, we check where the water gets in.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. The joint is cleaned and degreased.
  4. We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
  5. We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Advice

Surface by surface

Shower screens

Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We renew it without marking the glass.

Rooflights

Rooflights get the full force of the weather. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.

Glazing silicone in Staplestreet: 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.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Michael, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Letting a property close to Selling station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Can I do it myself?

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Questions from Staplestreet

Is Staplestreet in your area for glazing silicone?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Staplestreet is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Is Staplestreet within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.

How long should I leave it?

Cure times vary by product. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Can tenants book the work?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

Do I need to be at home?

That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.

Do you need glazing silicone in Staplestreet?

Silicone won’t bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.

People normally contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Mouldy sealant around glass panels
  • Rooflight joints letting water in
  • Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
  • Water getting into a conservatory at the joints

Schools such as Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • The size of the job
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • The product the joint needs
  • Whether the work is at height

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What we need to know

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Where the property is

For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before we start.

Why deal with it now?

Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Around Staplestreet, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
