Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Farther Howegreen
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. If you have a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and leaks from the base of a shower screen, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Farther Howegreen, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Glass that needs replacing

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Farther Howegreen: your questions answered

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Farther Howegreen is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.

What sealant do you use on glazing?
Glass needs a sealant made for glazing. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes, we do these often. We use anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we’re fully insured.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Check the joints once a year. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix, before water gets in.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.
The process
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Farther Howegreen, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Glazing silicone in Farther Howegreen: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Cold Norton Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Rented homes near North Fambridge station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

When to call us in Farther Howegreen
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out, and water gets between the layers.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
Homes close to Parish Church of All Saints include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- What the cure time is
- Whether they’re fully insured
Why it’s worth doing now in Farther Howegreen
A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Farther Howegreen, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
