About our glazing silicone in Cudham
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks generally come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you are dealing with leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, we can put it right, on rooflights, shower screens and glass-to-frame joints alike.
Around Cudham, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
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, then guaranteed for a year.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Cudham and across Kent. We can quote a run of properties together.
What glazing silicone looks like in Cudham
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. With historic houses such as Down House (about 1.4 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Cudham as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
In the older streets around Church of St Peter and St Paul, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. For landlords with property near Chelsfield station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Why act early in Cudham
Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly and point you to a glazier or roofer. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Cudham, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Cudham, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.

Do you need glazing silicone in Cudham?
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Some products do not bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
Schools such as Cudham Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
