Our glazing silicone service in Kent

Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone that’s suited to glass and the frame, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We work on glass-to-glass joints, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints, and the jobs we see most are leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and black or yellowed silicone on glass joints.

Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job and we leave things clean and tidy.

  1. First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
  2. The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
  5. The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.

Local landmarks in Maidstone

Other local landmarks include River Len LNR (within half a mile north-east), South Borough Primary School (under half a mile south) and St Augustine Academy (1.2 miles west). Maidstone’s nearest station is Maidstone West station, about 0.6 miles north-west.

Frames and weather across Kent

Homes across Kent range from period properties with timber or sash windows to new builds with uPVC. Walls facing the weather take the most punishment.

Hard water across most of the South East leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. For any job in Kent, joints are cleaned back properly before anything new goes in. Along the coast in Kent, window and wall joints facing the sea take the brunt of the weather, so they’re often the first to fail. Good preparation and the right sealant help it cope.

Maidstone: Schools such as South Borough Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. In the older streets around St Philip's Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Why act early?

Replacing windows or a shower screen is not needed for a failed joint. Sound glass and frames generally just need resealing.

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How long to leave it before use
  • How hidden problems are handled
  • Whether they’re fully insured

When something else is needed

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A frame that needs repairing or replacing
  • A roof that has moved or dropped
  • Failed flashing around a conservatory

What affects the quote in Kent

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • The number and length of the joints
  • The type of sealant required
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • When we can work, for business premises

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the property is
  • The type of property
  • The problem you’ve noticed

We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Surface by surface

Glass-to-glass joints

Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.

Shower screens

Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We reseal without scratching the glass.

Signs you need glazing silicone

Heat and cold make glass and frames move, and they don’t move by the same amount. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
  • Mouldy sealant around glass panels
  • Leaks from the base of a shower screen
  • Drips on the inside of a conservatory window

How much does glazing silicone cost in Kent?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
