Caulking and Resealing Services in Melbourne | Original Glazing
Over time, even the highest quality windows and glass installations can develop small gaps, cracks, or leaks. That’s where caulking and resealing come in. At Original Glazing, we provide expert caulking and resealing services across Melbourne to restore performance, prevent moisture damage, and improve energy efficiency.
Whether it’s part of a new installation or general glass maintenance, sealing your glass properly is essential.
What Is Caulking and Resealing?
Caulking involves applying a flexible sealant (usually silicone-based) around glass panels, windows, doors, and other joints to prevent water, air, and insect intrusion.
Resealing refers to the process of removing old or damaged sealant and applying a fresh, durable seal.
Caulking is typically used in new installations,
Resealing is required when seals degrade, crack, or separate from the surface.
Signs You Need Resealing
If your windows or glass panels are showing these signs, it's time to reseal:
> Visible gaps or cracked sealant around the frame,
> Drafts coming through closed windows or doors,
> Condensation between double-glazed units,
> Water leaks or moisture staining on internal walls,
> Increased noise or decreased energy efficiency.
Neglecting failing seals can lead to water damage, mould growth, glass loosening, and rising power bills due to air leaks.
Benefits of Caulking and Resealing
Proper caulking and resealing can restore and enhance the performance of your windows or glass panels. Benefits include:
> Improved thermal insulation and energy efficiency,
> Prevention of water damage and air leaks,
> Reduced external noise infiltration,

Caulking vs Silicone: What’s the Difference?

Caulk, Typically refers to acrylic-based products used for internal finishes,
