Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
Keep conservatory gutters clear so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.
Glazing silicone in Bekesbourne Hill, done properly
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We find the joint that is letting water in and renew it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. We work on shower screens, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints, and common reasons people get in touch are glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and drips on the inside of a conservatory window.
Around Bekesbourne Hill, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Bekesbourne Hill
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking to the glass and frame.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
If you let a flat or house near Bekesbourne station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Windows and doors in Bekesbourne Hill
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Goodnestone Park (about 4.1 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Bekesbourne Hill as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bridge and Patrixbourne Church of England Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
