Glazing silicone in Swan Street, done properly
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We’re often asked to deal with water tracking down the inner face of the glass and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight, on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and glass balustrade bases.
Around Swan Street, 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.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

What else we do in Swan Street
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
Common questions in Swan Street
Do you work for landlords with property near Chappel & Wakes Colne station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Swan Street in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Swan Street is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
That depends where the water is getting in. Sealant joints we can renew, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We remove the failed sealant and renew it.
Glass-to-glass joints
You see these joints clearly, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Why act early in Swan Street
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. A small leak can reach the floor below before it shows. Around Swan Street, 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: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Glazing silicone in Swan Street: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Homes close to Church of St Barnabas include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. Managing a site like Chappel Church of England Controlled Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For landlords with property near Chappel & Wakes Colne station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
