When to call us in Hickmans Green
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Glazing silicone in Hickmans Green
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you are dealing with split or lifting silicone on glass and leaks from the base of a shower screen, we can help.
Homes in small places like Hickmans Green often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Frames and glazing around Hickmans Green
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Belmont House and Gardens (about 4.9 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Hickmans Green 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Barnabas, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Letting a property close to Selling station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and keep the room ventilated. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.

FAQs for Hickmans Green
I let a flat near Selling station. Can you help?

Can you do glazing silicone in Hickmans Green?

Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.

Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
In many cases, as long as sealant is the cause. We find where the water gets in first, so you know what you are paying for.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Why act early in Hickmans Green
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hickmans Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Hickmans Green needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Move anything stored near the joints
