Glazing & conservatory sealant in Broomfield, Kent

- Water running down inside the glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
What happens if it’s left?
You do not need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. Around Broomfield, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Broomfield
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We’re often asked to deal with new silicone smeared over old sealant and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints.
Homes in small places like Broomfield 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 Broomfield and across Kent.

Frames and glazing around Broomfield
Broomfield is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Schools such as Herne Church of England Infant School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Herne Bay station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
Broomfield is about 1 mile south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent. Across the CT6 area, we cover glazing silicone for homes and businesses. Across Kent, we cover 922 places, Broomfield among them. For nearby work, see our Chelmsford page, about 39 miles away.

Broomfield: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Broomfield?
Yes, Broomfield is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Broomfield?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
How long should I leave it?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will tell you how long to leave the joint.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
Yes. The sealant joint at the base can be renewed. Fitting glass is a separate trade.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If it’s a broken panel, failed unit or roof problem, we will tell you.
Do you need glazing silicone in Broomfield?
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature, and they don’t move by the same amount. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
Homes close to Church of St Bartholomew include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Can I do it myself?
