- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight

- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
How the job changes by surface
Glass balustrade bases
The base of a glass balustrade is usually sealed. Failed sealant there lets water collect.
Glass-to-frame joints
We cut the old silicone from the glass without scratching it and reseal with glazing silicone.
How we handle glazing silicone in West Barnes
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. We work on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints, and common reasons people get in touch are rooflight joints letting water in and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame.
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.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Why act early in West Barnes
Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We will tell you that rather than seal it anyway, so you can call the right trade. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Putting it right early is much less trouble.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Do you need glazing silicone in West Barnes?
Not every leak is a sealant problem: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. That’s why we trace the leak first.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
For landlords with property near Motspur Park station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
Before booking anyone
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether VAT is included
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
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.
What affects the quote in West Barnes
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number of rooms or windows
- The type of sealant required
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the property is
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Roughly how big the job is
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Frames and glazing around West Barnes
In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so check that before booking. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
West Barnes is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. If you live in an older home near Holy Cross, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job for a typical job. In West Barnes, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
