Tooting Bec Glazing Silicone
Glazing joints in Tooting Bec need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a 12-month guarantee.
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Water running down inside the glass
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
Glazing silicone in Tooting Bec
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. We work on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and shower screens, and people most often call us about split or lifting silicone on glass and water getting into a conservatory at the joints.
London’s Victorian and Edwardian terraces were built with timber sash windows, and many still have them or their replacements. Either way, the mastic between frame and brickwork is what stops draughts and rain getting in, in Tooting Bec as anywhere.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Tooting Bec
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
In the older streets around St Augustine, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Who turns up on the day
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- What the cure time is
Surface by surface
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that is often finished with sealant. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing can’t fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We’ll tell you that rather than seal it anyway and point you to a glazier or roofer. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Questions from Tooting Bec
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Tooting station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Tooting Bec in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Tooting Bec 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.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Frames and glazing around Tooting Bec
In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so it’s worth checking before booking. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
