Glazing silicone in Boughton under Blean: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Barnabas, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. If you look after a building such as Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

- A broken pane or roof panel
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal

The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing from start to finish. Somewhere as small as Boughton under Blean, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but new silicone will not bond to old, and the leak normally returns. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. Older cottages and farmhouses around Boughton under Blean can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Common problems we fix in Boughton under Blean
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
If you let a flat or house near Selling station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
What to look for in a quote
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Are they insured?
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
