About our glazing silicone in Bough Beech
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We work on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-glass joints and glass-to-frame joints, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone pulling away from the glass and mouldy sealant around glass panels.
Homes in small places like Bough Beech 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.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Bough Beech and across Kent.

Bough Beech homes and the weather
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Hever Castle (about 1.1 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Bough Beech 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.
For landlords with property near Hever station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.
Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- A broken pane or roof panel
- Frames that have decayed or split

Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
That depends where the water is getting in. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
We do not replace glass. We look after the sealant joints, and we will tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes, it’s a common job. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Bough Beech, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
