Glazing silicone for Hadlow homes and businesses

Glazing silicone in Hadlow, done properly

We do not replace glass, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. Our work is the sealant joints and that is often where the water gets in. We work on rooflights, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints, and the jobs we see most are split or lifting silicone on glass and mouldy sealant around glass panels.

Around Hadlow, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

How the job changes by surface

Glass-to-frame joints

We cut the old silicone from the glass without scratching it and reseal with glazing silicone.

Conservatory frames

Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. We reseal them with a sealant suited to the frame.

Frames and glazing around Hadlow

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 Old Soar Manor (about 2.6 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Hadlow as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

Letting a property close to Beltring station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. Managing a site like Hadlow Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary's Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

How the visit works

On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any 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 Hadlow, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
  4. We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

DIY versus a professional finish

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
  • A frame that needs repairing or replacing
  • Failed flashing around a conservatory

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Shower screens
  • Conservatory frames
  • Rooflights
  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Glass-to-glass joints

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
  • Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation

Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.

A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.

FAQs for Hadlow

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Beltring station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Is Hadlow within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

What do you put in the joint?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.

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

Yes, it’s a common job. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.

Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?

We do not replace glass. We look after the sealant joints, and we will tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.

Is balustrade sealant something you do?

Yes, where the base is finished with sealant. Send us pictures and we will take a look when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
