- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.
Glass balustrade bases
The base of a glass balustrade is generally sealed. Failed sealant there lets water collect.
How we handle glazing silicone in Tinkers Cross
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. We’re often asked to deal with leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and leaks from the base of a shower screen, across glass balustrade bases, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Tinkers Cross is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Tinkers Cross questions
Can you do glazing silicone in Tinkers Cross?
Yes, Tinkers Cross 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 tell us what needs doing.
What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Tinkers Cross?
All our work, in Tinkers Cross and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Do you replace glass?
We do not replace glass. We look after the sealant joints, and we will tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
How long should I leave it?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes, we reseal the joint at the base channel. Fitting glass is a separate trade.
When it isn’t the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Glass that needs replacing
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tinkers Cross
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Frames and glazing around Tinkers Cross
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. Historic houses like Breamore House (about 2.2 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Tinkers Cross has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Breamore House, about 2.2 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Tinkers Cross.

What we’re called out for in Tinkers Cross
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould gets into it and the joint starts to lift.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
If you look after a building such as Fordingbridge Junior School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
