How we handle glazing silicone in Cooling
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. We’re often asked to deal with water getting into a conservatory at the joints and leaks from the base of a shower screen, on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and glass balustrade bases.
Somewhere as small as Cooling, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Medway.

When to call us in Cooling
Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased, the bead can peel away early.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
For landlords with property near Higham station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Before booking anyone
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Is VAT in the price?
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere as small as Cooling, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

When it isn’t the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Cracked or broken glass
- A roof that has moved or dropped
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
- Shower screens
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-frame joints
Why act early in Cooling
A leaking joint won’t fix itself. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber so early action saves a bigger repair. Older cottages and farmhouses around Cooling can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- 180+ five-star Google reviews
Surface by surface
Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We find the cause first.
Glass-to-frame joints
Old sealant is removed carefully from the glass and reseal with glazing silicone.
What glazing silicone looks like in Cooling
Cooling is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. With historic houses such as Restoration House (about 4.9 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Cooling 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.
Homes close to St James' Church include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Cooling questions
Does the coastal weather in Cooling affect outside sealant?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Do you work for landlords with property near Higham station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes. The old sealant is removed and the joint resealed with a suitable product.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
Glass replacement isn’t our trade. We look after the sealant joints and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What guarantee do I get?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Do you work in Cooling?
We do. Cooling is part of the area we cover, and the service is the same as everywhere else.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
That depends where the water is getting in. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed but roof and panel problems need another trade.
