About our glazing silicone in Borden
We don’t replace glass and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. What we do is the silicone around the glass, which is where many leaks start. Typical jobs include leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and split or lifting silicone on glass, across glass balustrade bases, glass-to-glass joints and glass-to-frame joints.
Homes in small places like Borden often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

What we are called out for in Borden
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould grows into the bead and the edges begin to peel.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Failed joints on frameless glass
Rented homes near Liss station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
Questions to ask before booking
- What the cure time is
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What preparation is included
Surface by surface
Glass-to-frame joints
The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We choose a product that suits both.
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We reseal without scratching the glass.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix, before water gets in.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.
Questions from Borden
Will you come out to Borden?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Borden for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Borden is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Normally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Windows and doors in Borden
Historic houses like Cowdray House (about 4.4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Borden has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
In the older streets around Church of St Peter, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. The work normally takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Borden, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
