Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Hollow Street
We do not replace glass, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass, which is where many leaks start. If you’re dealing with conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and cracked silicone between glass panels, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Hollow Street is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for most jobs, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Hollow Street, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Common questions in Hollow Street
Do you work for landlords with property near Sturry station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Hollow Street?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before we start.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hollow Street
A leaking joint will not fix itself. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture, so it pays to deal with it early. Around Hollow Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

How we quote for glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Access and height
- The amount of work
- Any working-time requirements on site
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-frame joints
We cut the old silicone from the glass without scratching it before new glazing silicone goes in.
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We remove the failed sealant and renew it.
Windows and doors in Hollow Street
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.
Rented homes near Sturry station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Homes close to Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Managing a site like Chislet Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part and we’ll find out which.
