Glazing silicone in Ivychurch, done properly
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it, and if it’s something sealant cannot fix, we will tell you. If you are dealing with rooflight joints letting water in and stained, discoloured glazing silicone, we can put it right, on glass-to-glass joints, conservatory frames and rooflights alike.
Homes in small places like Ivychurch 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.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Can I do it myself?
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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Glazing silicone in Ivychurch: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St George, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Ivychurch, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

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.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
Often, if the leak is at a sealant joint. We trace the leak first before any sealing.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes, where the base is finished with sealant. Send us photos and we’ll take a look.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will explain which colours are available.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Glass that needs replacing
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Glass balustrade bases
- Rooflights
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height
- When we can work, for business premises
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The type of property
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.
Why it’s worth doing now in Ivychurch
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. In a small place like Ivychurch, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What you get with us
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- You choose the colour before work begins
- A choice of colours where the product allows

- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
