What glazing silicone looks like in Wanstead
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Valentines Mansion (about 1.6 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Wanstead 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.
For landlords with property near Leytonstone High Road station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. As a London address, Wanstead can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Glazing silicone in Wanstead
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. We are often asked to deal with leaks from the base of a shower screen and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, on conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and shower screens.
Many London homes are flats, with windows high above the street. In a converted house or block, the lease generally says who is responsible for the windows, so it’s worth checking before booking.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Wanstead as everywhere else we work.

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In Wanstead, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Conservatory frames
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-frame joints

Wanstead: your questions answered
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Wanstead?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
Do you work for landlords with property near Leytonstone High Road station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover Wanstead?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you replace glass?
That’s not something we do. A misted unit has failed inside, and a glazier needs to replace it.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes, where the base is finished with sealant. Photos help us see what’s there.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee applies on all our work.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
When to call us in Wanstead
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
Homes close to Wanstead United Reformed Church include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Questions to ask before booking
- How long to leave it before use
- What product goes in the joint
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether you can choose the colour
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Why act early in Wanstead
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but silicone doesn’t stick to silicone, and the leak generally returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Wanstead, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
