Glazing silicone near West Brompton

Glazing silicone in West Brompton, done properly

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 both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. Common call-outs are for water getting into a conservatory at the joints and glass-to-glass joints that have split, across glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames.

Many London homes are flats, with windows high above the street. In a converted house or block, the lease normally says who is responsible for the windows, so it’s worth checking before booking.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A sagging or failing conservatory roof
  • A frame that needs repairing or replacing
  • A sealed unit that has misted inside

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Rooflights
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Conservatory frames
  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Shower screens
  • Glass balustrade bases

How it works

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for most jobs in most cases. In a London area like West Brompton, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.

  1. First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
  2. We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
  4. Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
  5. The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.

Preparing for the visit

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Related advice

Leave it or put it right?

A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in West Brompton, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: 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 go through it with you.

Glazing silicone in West Brompton: local notes

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, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

Rented homes near West Brompton station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Cuthbert with St Matthias CofE Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Common questions in West Brompton

Can parking be tricky for a visit in West Brompton?

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 West Brompton station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?

Yes. We remove the old sealant and reseal the wall and tray joints.

Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?

All our work has a one-year guarantee.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Is there any odour?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

When is the sealant fully cured?

Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you.

How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in West Brompton?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Do you need glazing silicone in West Brompton?

Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Rooflight joints letting water in
  • Water getting into a conservatory at the joints

In the older streets around Church of St Luke, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
