Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Glazing silicone in Crowhurst Lane End
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks usually come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. Typical jobs include glass-to-glass joints that have split and silicone pulling away from the glass, across glass balustrade bases, rooflights and shower screens.
Somewhere as small as Crowhurst Lane End, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Crowhurst Lane End: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Godstone station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Crowhurst Lane End in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Crowhurst Lane End is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
How long does the job take?
A typical job takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
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.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Glass-to-frame joints
The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We choose a product that suits both.
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.
Windows and doors in Crowhurst Lane End
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. Historic houses like Titsey Place (about 4.6 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Crowhurst Lane End has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Stephen's CofE Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St George, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.

Common problems we fix in Crowhurst Lane End
UV light ages silicone and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Failed joints on frameless glass
Rented homes near Godstone station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
