Glazing silicone in East Hill, done properly
Not every silicone suits glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, finished with a neat, even bead. If you have a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and glass-to-glass joints that have split, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around East Hill, 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 covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How the visit 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. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like East Hill needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice

Other services in East Hill
Different surfaces, different methods
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and let the room air. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls so it’s best dealt with straight away.
Do you need glazing silicone in East Hill?
Silicone won’t bond to a dirty surface. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased the sealant may lift within a few years.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Water running down inside the glass
For landlords with property near Shoreham (Kent) station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?

Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before any work starts.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
How long does the job take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. We will tell you when we quote.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- Frames that have decayed or split

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Frames and glazing around East Hill
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Lullingstone Castle (about 2.2 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around East Hill has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
If you live in an older home near Church of Saint Mary the Virgin, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
