Why deal with it now?
Replacing windows or a shower screen isn’t needed for a failed joint. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes, and we will tell you if that’s not the case. In a small place like Hooe Common, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Glazing silicone in Hooe Common, done properly
We do not replace glass and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that’s often where the water gets in. We work on rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases, and the jobs we see most are conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and silicone pulling away from the glass.
Around Hooe Common, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

The process
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job in most cases. In a small place like Hooe Common, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice
Hooe Common questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Cooden Beach station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Hooe Common within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass-to-frame joints

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Hooe Common homes and the weather
Hooe Common is within about 3 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Mary, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Letting a property close to Cooden Beach station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

What we’re called out for in Hooe Common
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
The most common problems we see are:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Water running down inside the glass
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
Managing a site like Ninfield Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
