Glazing & conservatory sealant in Broomfield, Kent
Professional glazing silicone in and around Broomfield, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
How we handle glazing silicone in Broomfield
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass spoils the look and lets water in. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. Typical jobs include conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and silicone pulling away from the glass, across rooflights, shower screens and glass balustrade bases.
Homes in small places like Broomfield often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Broomfield, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.

Landlord and commercial work in Broomfield
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Surface by surface
Conservatory frames
Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Broomfield
UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
Rented homes near Hollingbourne station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
What your quote should include
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- When the joint can take water or movement

How we quote for glazing silicone
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The number and length of the joints
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- Roughly how big the job is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- A few photos by email, if you can
If you are in Broomfield and need glazing silicone, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you will get a clear quote before any work starts.
What happens if it’s left?
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant will not help. We say so plainly and point you to a glazier or roofer. Around Broomfield, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls so it’s best dealt with right away.
What glazing silicone looks like in Broomfield
Historic houses like Leeds Castle (about 0.4 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Broomfield 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 is traditional sand mastic. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In the older streets around Church of St Margaret, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Schools such as Leeds and Broomfield Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
