Glazing silicone in Brockhill
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We are often asked to deal with leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and split or lifting silicone on glass, on glass balustrade bases, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints.
Homes in small places like Brockhill 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Brockhill and everywhere else we cover.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Brockhill
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Surface by surface
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that is often finished with sealant. Failed sealant there lets water collect.
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We remove the failed sealant and renew it.
Questions from Brockhill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Martins Heron station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover Brockhill for glazing silicone?
Yes, Brockhill is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Is it worth trying it myself?
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.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you.

When to call us in Brockhill
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like Brockhill, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.
Frames and glazing around Brockhill
With historic houses such as St Leonard's Hill (about 3.4 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Brockhill as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Rented homes near Martins Heron station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

When it is not the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
