The Hyde Glazing Silicone
Glazing joints in The Hyde need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
How we handle glazing silicone in The Hyde
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 we reseal both. If you have shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away, we can put it right.
Many London homes are flats, with windows high above the street. Who looks after the outside of the frames can depend on the lease, so check that first, and access in The Hyde is something to talk through when you book.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

The Hyde: your questions answered
Can parking be tricky for a visit in The Hyde?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hendon station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
Yes. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint using a sealant that suits the materials.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we’re fully insured.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
We pick a glazing silicone to suit the materials. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
What does glazing silicone cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you cover The Hyde?
We do. Our applicators work in The Hyde.
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Frames and glazing around The Hyde
In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so check that before booking. Historic houses like Heath House (about 3.2 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around The Hyde has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
As a London address, The Hyde can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Hyde School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Local landmarks in The Hyde
Around The Hyde, our work takes us to homes and buildings near Moon Under Water pub, Brampton College and West Hendon Playing Fields. The Hyde has its own railway station: Hendon station. Nearby you will also find St Andrew's Hospital (1.5 miles south-east) and Church Farmhouse Museum (1.1 miles north-east). The countryside around The Hyde includes Parliament Hill and Darland's Lake.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
Common problems we fix in The Hyde
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
Rented homes near Hendon station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
What your quote should include
- What guarantee comes with the work
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether VAT is included
- What insurance they hold
Different surfaces, different methods
Glass balustrade bases
Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Quotes for glazing silicone in The Hyde
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How easy the joints are to reach
- When we can work, for business premises
- Which sealant suits the joint
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The type of property
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
