Goodnestone: your questions answered
I let a flat near Adisham station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Goodnestone?
Yes. Goodnestone is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
A top-up rarely holds. Fresh silicone will not bond to cured silicone so we take it all out and start clean.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work has a 12-month guarantee.
What does glazing silicone cost?

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Goodnestone
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass and reseal the joint. If you are dealing with silicone pulling away from the glass and glass-to-glass joints that have split, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Goodnestone is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Can I do it myself?
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.
If you’re 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.
What sealant work cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A broken pane or roof panel
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What glazing silicone looks like in Goodnestone
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Goodnestone Park (about 0.4 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Goodnestone 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.
Managing a site like Goodnestone Church of England Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Homes close to Church of the Holy Cross include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.
Goodnestone is about 7 miles east of Canterbury, in Kent. Jobs in Goodnestone get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. Across Kent, we cover 922 places, and Goodnestone is one of them. We also work in Chelmsford, about 47 miles from Goodnestone.
We cover every part of the CT3 postcode area for glazing silicone and the streets around it. Local streets include The Street, Saddlers Hill and Fitzwalters Meadow, and we cover them all. Neighbouring places we cover for glazing silicone include Chillenden (1 mile south-east), Twitham (1 mile north), Well Head (1 mile north), Ratling (1 mile south-west) and Staple (2 miles north-east). Larger places within reach include Canterbury (7 miles west), Margate (11 miles north-east), Dover (8 miles south), Folkestone (12 miles south), Ramsgate (10 miles north-east) and Broadstairs (12 miles north-east).
What’s near Goodnestone
Typical jobs here are in homes near The Fitzwalter Arms and the streets around them. Goodnestone’s nearest station is Adisham station, roughly 1.5 miles west. Other landmarks nearby include St Martins Hospital (5.7 miles west).
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like Goodnestone, 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.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Common problems we fix in Goodnestone
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products do not bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
For landlords with property near Adisham station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
What your quote should include
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- The length of the guarantee
- Are they insured?
Leave it or put it right?
A leaking joint will not fix itself. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Goodnestone, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost 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 we start, so you know where you stand.
