Common call-outs are for failed sealant around rooflight glass and water running down inside the glass, across glass-to-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and shower screens.

Glazing silicone in Boughton Aluph: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Godinton House (about 4.2 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Boughton Aluph has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
If you live in an older home near All Saints’ Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. For landlords with property near Wye station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Common problems we fix in Boughton Aluph
Sealant laid over old sealant does not last. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Water running down inside the glass
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
If you look after a building such as Wye School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Boughton Aluph
Replacing windows or a shower screen is not needed for a failed joint. Sound glass and frames normally just need resealing, and we’ll tell you if that’s not the case. In a small place like Boughton Aluph, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Keep conservatory gutters clear so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.
