How we handle glazing silicone in Hollingbourne
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame and reseal the joint. We work on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints, and common reasons people get in touch are conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and water running down inside the glass.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Hollingbourne is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Hollingbourne: your questions answered
Do you cover Hollingbourne for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Hollingbourne is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Hollingbourne within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
We don’t replace glass. We look after the sealant joints, and we’ll tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.

Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Frames and glazing around Hollingbourne
The South East is one of 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 Leeds Castle (about 1.3 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Hollingbourne has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
If you look after a building such as Hollingbourne Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Rented homes near Hollingbourne station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Advice
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together.
What happens if it’s left?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we will tell you. In a small place like Hollingbourne, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What you get with us
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

Do you need glazing silicone in Hollingbourne?
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
If you live in an older home near All Saints Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
