Your questions about glazing silicone in Gadshill
Is Gadshill in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Gadshill is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Higham station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint with a suitable product.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we are fully insured.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
About our glazing silicone in Gadshill
Sealant on glazing does not last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Resealing puts that right. We are often asked to deal with conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and cracked silicone between glass panels, across glass-to-glass joints, glass-to-frame joints and shower screens.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Gadshill is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the quote in Gadshill
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Windows and doors in Gadshill
With historic houses such as Temple Manor (about 1.9 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Gadshill 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. 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.
If you look after a building such as Strood Academy, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Homes close to Church of St John include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Letting a property close to Higham station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Gadshill needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls so it’s best dealt with straight away.
Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Cracked or broken glass
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we seal

Landlord and commercial work in Gadshill
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
What happens if it’s left?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. In a small place like Gadshill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

Surface by surface
Rooflights
Water around a rooflight isn’t always the sealant. We find the cause first.
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We renew it without marking the glass.
