Glazing & conservatory sealant in Allington, Kent
Glazing silicone for conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens for householders, landlords and businesses in Allington. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
About our glazing silicone in Allington
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away spoils the look and lets water in. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. We work on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-glass joints and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about leaks from the base of a shower screen and glass-to-glass joints that have split.
Houses in smaller places like Allington can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town. That is hard on the mastic around frames and sills.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Surface by surface
Conservatory frames
Exposed frame joints wear with the weather. A fresh bead seals them again.
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Why act early in Allington
A leaking joint won’t fix itself. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber so early action saves a bigger repair. Homes in smaller places like Allington can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why us?
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

Frames and glazing around Allington
Historic houses like Stoneacre (about 4.2 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Allington 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’s traditional sand mastic. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Letting a property close to Barming station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you live in an older home near St. Nicholas' Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Managing a site like Allington Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
Check the joints once a year. Catching a split early keeps the repair small.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
